make: uic-qt5: Command not found

Vasan

Hi!
I am trying to build a file and run the output. When I am in the source folder and run "make all" I get the following error:

uic-qt5 main_host.ui -o ui_main_host.h
make: uic-qt5: Command not found
make: *** [ui_main_host.h] Error 127

Can someone help me with this!? Much appreciated!

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Which OS are you using ? How did you install Qt ?

Vasan

@SGaist Hi! Thank you! :)

I am using Ubuntu 14.04. I installed qt5.3 by using:

wget http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.3/5.3.0/qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.3.0.run

chmod +x qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.3.0.run

./qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.3.0.run

I have tried it on 12.04 and installing via Software center too. But I get the same error. :(

AFAIK, the uic-qt5 is the name used by Ubuntu to distinguish between Qt4 and Qt5 installs on the system so it looks like you have a mix or something.

@SGaist Oh! what would be a solution to that? I am not very well experienced with Linux. :(

If you don't want to use your distribution's Qt just remove it, if you want to have both, then start by removing the one you downloaded, then check that you have all Qt 5 dev related packages installed then you can re-install the one from qt.io
