Err installing QT creator in Ubuntu hosted in Virtualbox

[embdev99]

Hi,
i'm currently using Ubuntu 17.10 LTS in virtualbox and when i tried to install QT creator via the online installer and after clicking next, i'm stuck at the "Preparing meta information download" for a long time.

Is there any settings / configuration i need to perform?

Thanks!

I have installed Qt creator and libs on an Ubuntu 17.04 in Virtualbox hosted on windows 10 without a problem.

Is your internet link fast enough?
Is your hosting OS happy about the Virtualbox connecting to Internet?
Are you on 64 bit OSes?

You could follow also those guidelines
I guess the example if for Qt libs only (Qt 7.0), but you can certainly adapt and download and install also Qt creator

Personally I would prefer the online installer, when it works.

Hi,

Do you have any error message printed on the console ?
