Hi,

Why are you pointing the plugin path to Qt Creator's installation rather than the Qt version you used to build your application ?

By default you should not even need to use that variable.

[mywings19]

@SGaist
Me?That might be the problem

When I point the Qt plugin path, 'xcb' couldn't be found
sugon@EC:~$ ~/QtProject/build-Test-Qt_6_3_1_in_PATH_Qt6_3_1-Debug/Test
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "/home/sugon/Software/Qt6.3.1/plugins/platforms/"
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Available platform plugins are: linuxfb, minimal, offscreen, vnc.

So shall I reinstall the Qt or add some plugins?
Thank you

[SGaist]

Start your application with the QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS environment variable set to 1 to see why the loading fails.

@SGaist said in qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.:

Start your application with the QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS environment variable set to 1 to see why the loading fails.

I've set the QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS environment variable in the .bashrc file and sourced it. See floor.134
But these is no error message while loading qtcreator.

sugon@EC:~$ echo $QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS
1

[hskoglund]

Hi, perhaps you are launching Qt Creator by double clicking on it?
If so, instead try starting Qt Creator from the same Terminal window that has QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS set to 1.

In that case when does the message you showed earlier:

appear? Not until after you close Creator? Interesting.....

This 3 line message is showed when I build and run a test project.
I mean after I set QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS to 1, There's no extra error message except this 3 line when I start qtcreator or run project in terminal.

Now, I've uninstall the Qt and qtcreator,then installing by online installer.

[SGaist]

Is that a custom Qt build ? Because from the looks of it, the plugin is indeed not there.

[BenyaminZojaji]

In my case, I just upgrade PyQt5 to PyQt6 and that works.

[GEZawaTT]

@trimixotun this worked!! Thank you so much!

[3mad]

In my case, I had the issue when installing ParaView, things fixed by installing the libxcb-xinput0 package:
sudo apt-get install libxcb-xinput0

Then, things work fine.

[roux.benoit]

Hi,

I know this is an old post, but I have the same issue that comes up when I'm setting some path for the LD_Library_path.

for the context i'm creating a container that run an app with a gui using pyqt5, which works perfectly.

However, I also need to install matlab runtime and after I set up Matlab runtime environement path :

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mscr/v912/runtime/glnxa64:/opt/mcr/v912/bin/glnxa64:/opt/mcr/v912/sys/os/glnxa64:/opt/mcr/v912/sys/opengl/lib/glnxa64

the gui stops working and I get the "qt.qpa.plugin ..." error message.

Any thoughts?
Thanks a lot

[SGaist]

@roux-benoit hi,

Check whether there's Qt libraries in your matlab installation.

[phil-lipp]

I hope someone on this forum can help me. I'm trying to use Howdy (https://github.com/boltgolt/howdy), but I get the error described by OP.
I only get the error when I use su -, however when I use plain su (without the -) it works. So I think i somehow messed up the install when I forgot to add the -... how can I fix this?

the error:

qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display 
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

@phil-lipp
https://forum.qt.io/post/763171 was just asked.

I had too problems with this file.
It just depends from which shared file left you.
first at all set in the console :

export QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1

This will show you in which part it fails, normally is in libqxcb.so,

example:

This is the shared library that lefts , it could that does not be the only one , so for see better which shared libraries are and which not use the next command :

ldd : /home/user/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/PySide6/Qt/plugins/platforms/libqxcb.so

This must show you the next thing :

As you can see the shared library which is not , appears like not found

    libxcb-cursor.so.0 => not found

Just thus easier to fix it , is using :

sudo apt install libxcb-cursor0

In your case could be another like: libxcb-randr0

@twar Hi, solved by sudo apt-get install libxcb*

[fokhagyma]

@IuriiV Thank you, it solved for me too.
