Problem Loading QMYSQL driver in my Qt Quick project.

carles.sole.grau

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to connect to a MySQL database so in my main.cpp file I added this code:

QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");
    db.setHostName("example");
    db.setDatabaseName("example");
    db.setUserName("example");
    db.setPassword("mypassord");
    if(!db.open())
       qWarning( "Connection FAILED." );;

When I execute all the project (Qt Quick):

QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE QMYSQL QMYSQL3 QPSQL QPSQL7
Connection FAILED.

It seems like Qt knows QMYSQL driver is available but it doesn't load it.

I find some information in the forum but it doesn't help me,

Does anyone know how to fix it? I'm using Qt 5.6 in Ubuntu 16.04-

Thank you very much.

Hi,

That has nothing to do with QtQuick.

Did you install MySQL's client libraries ? If so then run ldd on the Qt's MySQL plugin. You'll likely find that the client library used to build Qt is older than the one you have installed on your machine.
