Can't find libQt5Core lib

Hello! I have a little trouble with app deployment.
I have installed Qt5 to /usr/local/qt5 (and it is not added to ldconfig).

but I've got exception:

What I'm doing wrong? Any ideas?
Thanks!

@r3d9u11

Could it be that you are mixing cross-compiled and desktop libs?
Or is this on an embedded device?

r3d9u11

@koahnig this in on embedded device.
Qt libs and Qt App was cross-compiled with arm-linux-gnueabihf
I removed all qt files from /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ on embedded device and now I've got:

error while loading shared libraries: libQt5Core.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tried to place Qt libraries to the current work directory, I tried to create launcher (like described here http://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.8/deployment-x11.html). All without success, libQt5Core can't be found

Also on I published on the github my script which do a cross-compilation of qtbase.

Hi,

Unless you modified the rpath of your application, putting your application dependencies in the same folder won't have any effect. You can use the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to give additional paths to the loader to search in when starting your application.

r3d9u11

@SGaist thanks for answer. Yes, I did set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to needed value.
So, I recompiled my application, did copy of needed libs to embedded device and setted LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
Now I have another exception:

/ta512/./ta: error while loading shared libraries: /home/imx6/Desktop/qt5120/sysroot/usr/lib/libz.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This is path on my host-machine, but not in the current embedded device.
The path to libz in my embedded device is /ta512/lib/libz.so and it already defined in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
Why application remembered a full path to libz from my host-machine and doesn't looks in LD_LIBRARY_PATH?
(directly my application doen't uses libz, which requires by glib, which requires by Qt)

SGaist

You should run ldd (with LD_LIBRARY_PATH defined) on your application and its dependencies to see where it's currently looking for them.

@SGaist ok, I recompiled qtbase without glib, and now I return to the topic theme:

SGaist

You are not deploying libQt5Core.so.5 along the other Qt libraries in your ta512 folder.

r3d9u11

@SGaist no, I'm deploying only 3 Qt libs in folder /ta512

r3d9u11

@SGaist ok, I built Qt 5.9.7 with options:

    -verbose                        \
    -nomake tests                   \
    -nomake examples                \
    -no-use-gold-linker             \
    -no-opengl                      \
    -no-dbus                        \
    -no-glib                        \
    -no-icu                         \
    -rpath

and the target Qt application on the embedded device did found the Qt libs, but I've got another exception:

./qt_c: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by /ta/libQt5Core.so.5)

sure, version of glib on the target device is 2.23, but Qt was configured without GLIB support. Why Qt still require this library?

well, as latest results with same cross-compilations process (e.g. same tools, compiler, QtCreator settings, etc):

cross-compiled app with Qt 5.12.0 can't find self Qt libraries
cross-compiled app with Qt 5.9.7 can find self Qt libraries, but can't work without GLIB < v2.28 (even configured without glib support)

SGaist

And why are you not deploying the Qt5Core library since you already deploy the others ?

r3d9u11

@SGaist as I told before I did copy Qt libs with application to the target embedded device (as you can see the folder /ta512 already contains all needed Qt libs and executable application), also I did set value of LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /ta512 before application has been started.

SGaist

That's clear, but from your last test, why only these three libs and not QtCore ?

r3d9u11

@SGaist sorry, maybe I don't understand you question right. Does libQt5Core.so.5 (which was already deployed with application to the target device) is not "Qt5Core library"?

SGaist

The question is: since you are deploying 3 Qt libraries already, why not the Qt5Core ?

r3d9u11

@SGaist Sorry, but what do you mean under "Qt5Core"? "libQt5Core.so" is a "Qt5Core", isn't it?

SGaist

Yes it is.

r3d9u11

@SGaist because the target application is looking for the libQt5Core.so.5, not for libQt5Core.so

howewer I'll try to do copy of all aliases: libQt5Core.so, libQt5Core.so.5 and libQt5Core.so.5.12.0

thanks for hint!
and happy New Year ;)

SGaist

If you want to be sure the loader finds the correct library where you put them, then yes, copy all the aliases up to the library itself.
