How do I copy a configuration file for a database to the build folder when I compile the project?

[haifisch]

I have MSVC2017. I connect it in .pro as follows:

CONFIG(release, debug|release): DESTDIR = $$OUT_PWD/release
CONFIG(debug, debug|release): DESTDIR = $$OUT_PWD/debug

conf.path = $$DESTDIR
conf.files = conf/db.conf

INSTALLS += \
    conf

in "Add Build Step":
"Commands" "C:\Qt\5.11.0\msvc2017_64\bin\qmake.exe"
"Arguments" "install"
But an assembly error occurs:

23:22:21: Запускается: «C:\Qt\5.11.0\msvc2017_64\bin\qmake.exe» install
Cannot find file: install.
23:22:21: Процесс «C:\Qt\5.11.0\msvc2017_64\bin\qmake.exe» завершился с кодом 2.
Ошибка при сборке/установке проекта ObservationLog (комплект: Desktop Qt 5.11.0 MSVC2017 64bit)
Во время выполнения этапа «Сборка»

How do I copy the "conf" folder with the db.conf file to the build folder when I compile the project?
