    I have a remote Ubuntu server. I need to deploy my application (Console Server Application) there. What should I do? I meant, I don't have a GUI system on my Remote Server. Can I install Qt on my remote serve and compile it there? Or Should I build it on my local machine and deploy there?

      Hi,

      Does your application have a GUI ?

        No, It's a console application.Actually it's a web service developed using QHttpServer (https://github.com/nikhilm/qhttpserver/) but I use QWidgets internally.

          IIRC, you can use the offscreen plugin.

          What do you use QWidget for ?

            I reuse code I wrote for anther application which is a QWidget, it creates a svg file using QPixmap. (Nothing shows on the screen)

            I'm not getting how offscreen plugin helps me to Deploy the app on an Ubuntu Server. :)

              Since you are using graphic classes you will need a plugin that allows them to render and since you don't have X11 on your server the offscreen plugin sounds like the way to go.
