[SOLVED] Issue linking to MySQL

Hatchi

Dear All

I was experiencing the following problem:
QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLIT QMYSQL ....

I searched the internet and found I had to link the dll files of MySQL.

However I keep getting an error for which I do not find a solution.

My computer has Windows 7 installed, 64 bit and Qt 5.2.1 for Windows 64 bit.

What can I do to solve this problem?

Hi,

Short answer: spaces in paths on windows are evil.

You should at least quote your path using e.g. $$quote("My path with space")
or use the 8.3 notation.
