Do I have to pay to update Qt tools since now? [Solved]
-
Hi, I tried to check the updates from the Maintenance Tool and when I try to login it shows the next message.
No valid license available in your Qt Account for this host platform. Please renew your license(s) from Qt Account.I filled the form that appears after clicking on the link, but I don't get anything.
-
mine says the same after i updated the Maintenance tool. must be some kind of bug.
-
It seems you're right. Qt replied me in a post in Google+.
I hope it's repaired soon (if it's really a bug), because that bug left me really disappointed.

@Cold_Distance
well
reading about v-play at
http://planet.qt.io/
let me to think that you can just download v-play yourself
from
https://v-play.net/download/
first line says
"Note: If you already installed Qt 5 on your system, you can skip this step and follow the instructions here."
but seems to want me to make a profile when clicking "here" so do not know what you will get in there.Thanks for updating this q.

In Add V-Play to your existing Qt installation section of this webpage I saw a possibility to install V-Play.
I don't know if I can do it with the current Maintenance Tool, although the impossibility to update the Qt official tools is something that worries me too.
Well, I will continue as I can programming with Qt.
-
Well, I saw that I can run the Maintenance Tool has super user trough the console.
I will become the owner of full Qt stack.
-
so if you run it as root, it works ?

I had this issue with the maintenance tool (the message about no valid license). I used to have an account on the Qt website but I didn't log in for a while.
I tried to log in to the site. https://account.qt.io/ and I think I created an account with my existing e-mail address. I think that after that, running the maintenance tool worked for me as expected.

Thanks for your. i tried logging in but still wont let use the tool. -
Yes, doing "sudo" directly on the executable of Maintenance Tool (I use Kubuntu/Ubuntu) it worked perfect.
Now I removed Qt Open Source and I installed V-Play, that installs the full Qt stack, and I put it in a subfolder in my own home folder to not have issues with permissions.
I recommend not install Qt in /opt, but in home folder.
-
ok so you solved it :)
I ended up upgrading to 5.5 and the M. tool start working again.

I'm now facing this same problem with the latest Maintenance Tool (updated April 6th, 2017). What should I do?
All I can get is the message:
No valid license available in your Qt Account for this host platform.
Please renew your license(s) from Qt Account. -
