17:48:22: Could not start process "make" qmake_all
Error while building/deploying project Calculator (kit: Desktop Qt 5.10.0 GCC 64bit)
When executing step "qmake"
My project can't run on Ubuntu
my kit: Desktop Qt 5.10.0 GCC 64bit
I am a newbie to Linux OS so how can I do
In terminal:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
If you get Cannot find -lGL error, try this:
sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev
Sometimes this happens due to incorrect path in the build settings.Qt creator shows this path in red in the project settings tab.
You can either give a correct path as the build directory (Which then will be shown in black) or deselect the shadow build checkbox to resolve the error.
To access build settings click the project icon on the left pane.
this image will show how qt creator shows the incorrect path
This can also happen on Windows if you are using something like MSYS2 and its Qt/GCC builds. Finding where make is in MSYS2 shell ($whereis make) and adding to PATH does fix it. (Must restart Qt creator)

I recently installed Qt Creator on my Ubuntu machine using the command:
$ sudo apt install qtcreator
$ sudo apt install qt5-default
I also know that it is correctly installed through this
$ qtchooser -print-env
QT_SELECT="default"
QTTOOLDIR="/usr/lib/qt5/bin"
QTLIBDIR="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu"
However, the Qt Creator app still does not let me select a Kit because my Qt Versions is
still empty:
It seems there are others with the same issue but I cannot find a solution.
Ultimately, this all began because I was trying to make a project after installing Qt but I could not get passed this Kit Selection:
menu. I learned that the kit selection problem stems from not having the "Qt version" installed. However, I still cannot find a solution to how I can correctly install this Qt version.
you should install gcc and g++ compiler, look at Qt documentation
you should write this command
sudo apt-get install build-essential
Launch Qt Creator. Go to Tools > Options. Click Build & Run and select
tab Kit. Configure a compiler if it is not automatically detected.
this problem happens because of qt creator didn't understand and find the compiler, you should install it, after that it is usually automatically detected. if you have this issue again you should add it manually in the compiler section and in the kit section set compiler for your Desktop kit.
For adding manually compiler look at this QT Documentation
For adding manually kit look at this QT Documentation
For Adding Qt Versions manually
look at this QT Documentation
To add a Qt version:
Select Tools > Options > Kits > Qt Versions > Add.
Select the qmake executable for the Qt version that you want to add.
Select the Qt version to view and edit it.
In the Version name field, edit the name that Qt Creator suggests
for the Qt version.
In the qmake location field, you can change the qmake location.
If the Qt version is for QNX, enter the path to your installed QNX
SDK in the QNX SDK field.
I installed Qt Creator from XUbuntu 20.04 repository using these commands:
sudo apt install qt5-default qtcreator qtbase5-examples qtdeclarative5-examples
And I got Qt Creator where all Qt classes are highlighted as errors with message "Use of undeclared identifier". But projects are compiled correctly. АUtocompletion of Qt Classes is also not working.
I don't want to install version from Qt site, because repo versions run faster.
Screenshot:
I've got it fixed by going to Help > About Plugins > C++ > uncheck ClangCodeModel. Restart QtCreator.
I installed QT creator in debian linux. If I try to create a new project, in Kit option I got the error like "No valid Kit found". If I go to Tools ->Options -> Build&Run -> kit, there is no options to select. But I installed same in ubuntu, it is working fine without same problem. What im missing?
Also suggest me if I need to reinstall the QT creator or something else...
Its time to explain the tricks to install QT creator in debian linux operating system.
STEP 1: dont install just QT creator in your PC.
Install whole package of QT [link to download QT SDK below][1]
[1]: http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/#section-2 , so that you will get all the libraries and dependencies.
After downloading the file is in the ".run" format . Install the downloaded file in your terminal (by giving commands).
STEP 2: install
sudo apt-get install g++
sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev
in your terminal.
STEP 3: install
sudo apt-get install libcanberra-gtk-module
sudo apt-get install libcanberra-gtk-module:i386
now restart your system once and create new project.It should work
I like to thank agold for his guidance , Actually he spent more than 3 hours to resolve this issue. :)
I have self-compiled Qt 5.4.1 and installed in /opt/qt-5.4.1.
However, I encountered an error while trying to 'qmake' my project file:
Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: webkitwidgets
I did sudo apt-get install libqt5webkit5-dev but the error persists.
I suspect then that apt-get install does not work when Qt-Core was self-compiled. The Qt Webkit source is available on https://qt.gitorious.org/qt
The question is, how and where should I install Webkit from source so that it can be detected while running qmake?
Probably you missed compilation of webkit while compilation of Qt. Read here how to resolve this issue:
https://forum.qt.io/topic/40378/solved-linux-unknown-module-s-in-qt-webkitwidgets
QtWebKit is not built anymore by default. You can build it after you have a proper build of Qt. Once you have your build of Qt clone the QtWebKit repo:
git clone https://github.com/qt/qtwebkit.git
then, make a new dir for the build files and from that directory enter the command:
/opt/qt-5.4.1/bin/qmake <path/to/qtwebkit>
make -j<n>
make install
Now you should be able to use QtWebKit with your build.
might want to try:
sudo apt-get install libqt5webkit5
and
sudo apt-get install libqt5webkit5-dev
I'm trying to configure my Qt for Embedded Linux with a virtual framebuffer according to these instructions. From the Qt for Embedded source folder, I'm trying:
./configure -embedded -opensource -confirm-license -verbose -qvfb
make
I get the following error which prevents me from doing make install:
.obj/release-shared-emb-x86/qtextcodec.o: In function `setup()':
qtextcodec.cpp:(.text+0x23cc): undefined reference to `QIconvCodec::QIconvCodec()'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [../../lib/libQtCore.so.4.8.4] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/cstjean/qt/src/corelib'
make: *** [sub-corelib-all-ordered] Error 2
If I do:
./configure -embedded -opensource -confirm-license -verbose -qvfb
make -no-iconv
sudo make install -no-iconv
...This works. But when I go into QtCreator, Tools > Options > Build & Run > Qt Versions, I try to select qmake for Qt Embedded (for me it's in /home/cstjean/qt/bin/qmake) and it tells me:
Qt version is not properly installed, please run make install
I've tried googling this like crazy. There are a lot of suggestions to download various libraries, which I've tried to no avail, but perhaps I'm missing something because this is a pretty fresh installation of Ubuntu I'm using.
Thanks.
I solved this problem by installing Gnome and starting over from scratch for my Qt Embedded for Linux installation.
I googled gnome for ubuntu 12.04 and found these instructions. You'll have to see which version of Ubuntu you have and search for that of course. You can see which version you have by typing into a command line:
lsb_release -a
Once I had gnome installed, I restarted my computer and signed in using Gnome.
Then I completely uninstalled and removed all traces of Qt Embedded:
cd yourQtEmbeddedDir
sudo make uninstall
cd ..
rm -r yourQtEmbeddedDir sourceFileTarYouHadDownloaded.tar.gz
I redownloaded the source file tar for Qt Embedded for Linux (from here) and proceeded to install according to these instructions after extracting the source files from the tar:
./configure -embedded -opensource -confirm-license -verbose -qvfb
make
sudo make install
Now, if you tell QtCreator about qmake from this installation, then QtCreator will no longer complain about a bad installation! Ta da!
Note: If you're attempting to the do the Virtual Framebuffer business too, then this is not the end of the road. You need to have Qt for X11 installed as well in order to compile qvfb.
Long story short: You need Gnome if you're trying to install Qt Embedded for Linux with a Virtual Framebuffer on Ubuntu!
