QT 5.5.1 Windows Deployment Problem

[zeroptr]

Hi All,

I created a Virtual Windows 10 machine with QT 5.5.1 I moved my code from Linux to Win I compiled the release version under mingw32 - release... Run windeployqt.exe, give me a directory structure but my start my exe it says

This application failed to start becouse it could't find or load the Qt platform plugin "Windows"

I googled it find many issues but my case didn't match any of them... The answer about the missing dll is not a case for me.. All the dll's are incluses at the directory

my directory structure lie this

Directory of C:\Users\burak\Desktop\VikingUretim\build-VikingUretim-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MinGW_32bit-Release\release

hi
you also need a platforms folder with one DLL

http://www.tripleboot.org/?p=138

[zeroptr]

My answer is below

Screen 1

screen 2

I also added postgresql libs under the path...

but no solution

[mrjj]

@zeroptr
Hmm it does look good from the pictures.
Did u copy from
C:\Qt\Qt5.1.1\5.1.1\mingw48_32\plugins\platforms ?
( or similar path)

Maybe it misses libEGL.dll
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20495620/qt-5-1-1-application-failed-to-start-because-platform-plugin-windows-is-missi

[zeroptr]

unfortunatelly libEGL is included..

I made brand new release and rerun windeployqt.exe but nothing chande still gives the same error...

[zeroptr]

when I started the release version from QT I get this messege may be this helps

Starting C:\Users\burak\Desktop\VikingUretim\build-VikingUretim-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MinGW_32bit-Release\release\VikingUretim.exe...
QSqlDatabase: QPSQL driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers:
QSqlDatabase: an instance of QCoreApplication is required for loading driver plugins
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "windows".

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
C:\Users\burak\Desktop\VikingUretim\build-VikingUretim-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MinGW_32bit-Release\release\VikingUretim.exe exited with code 3

[mrjj]

could u try a default project?
Just create one, build exe and copy to you deploy folder and see
if that runs.
-QCoreApplication is required for loading driver plugins
this sound spooky..

Last stuation...

I copied all

C:\Qt\Qt5.5.1\5.5\mingw492_32\bin>copy *.dll C:\Users\burak\Desktop\VikingUretim\build-VikingUretim-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MinGW_32bit-Release\release\

then

C:\Users\burak\Desktop\VikingUretim\build-VikingUretim-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MinGW_32bit-Release\release>del d.dll
C:\Users\burak\Desktop\VikingUretim\build-VikingUretim-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MinGW_32bit-Release\release>del .o
C:\Users\burak\Desktop\VikingUretim\build-VikingUretim-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MinGW_32bit-Release\release>del moc_.

I have a 155 MB ! directory full of dll but I get rid off debugging ones...

guess what its working !

new directory is like this

windeployQT.exe is missing a dll but I could not find the dll yet..

I reduced the files total to 29MB with this directory structure... I moved the dll's by hand one by one I get this struct working but I couldn't find the source of problem dll was...
This Project only uses widgets no QtQuick and PostgreSQL database at backend.

regards...
any way... problem solved .. may this info helps someone else ..

[mrjj]

Good work
Shooting it with the big cannon.
Seems you did indeed miss a DLL but not sure which one.

[zeroptr]

Not with a big cannon.. an axe with my hand :)

thanks for you interest and help @mrjj
