Qt 5 Unknown module(s) in QT: uitools - qt

I just started to use Qt today and I don't know if I did something wrong when I installed it but I can't use QFormBuilder.
Linux Xubuntu 64b
what I did:
I clone this repo : git#gitorious.org:qt/qt5.git
init_repository >> ./configure >> make >> sudo make install
I downloaded qt-creator http://qt-project.org/downloads#qt-creator
I created a new project and when I try to include QFormBuilder he tell me that he doesn't know this file.
So, I saw somewhere someone who says that I need to add QT += uitools to the project file, but now when I try to use qmake, I am getting Unknown module(s) in QT: uitools.
Sorry for my english and thank you for your help.

If you get
Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: designer
you are missing qttools5-dev package.

To add to the answer by #svlasov, on RHEL or CentOS based systems (7.x or 8.x, etc.) you need to install:
yum install qt5-qttools-devel
Depending on the project you are building, you may also need to install qt5-qttools-static.

Have you actually read the documentation?
It writes this at the beginning:
The QFormBuilder class is used to dynamically construct user interfaces from UI files at run-time. More...
Header: #include
qmake: QT += designer
Inherits: QAbstractFormBuilder.
So, just follow that and put this into your qmake project file:
QT += designer
or you can invoke qmake like this:
qmake QT += designer
Of course, you need to make sure that you have the designer installed properly for this. You will need to install a package like libqt5designer5 on your Ubuntu, or if you had installed Qt manually, you will need to install the designer manually as well.
I am not that familiar with Ubuntu. You may need to install some corresponding development package as well. Either way, the point is that the library and headers need to be installed properly on your system which you seem to lack when getting Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: designer after either of the aforementioned solutions.

Read the documentation, it says to add the designer module to the .pro file:
QT += designer

Unknown module(s) in QT: declarative

Sorry, this may be a dumb question, but I'm totally new in QT, I just need to run a project and Log some data.
I installed Qt "qt-unified-windows-x86-2.0.3-2-online", open the project and then click on configure, and then I got this error:
Unknown module(s) in QT: declarative
which wont let me compile the code. Everything else looks fine.
From researching I get that I may lack some libraries, I'm using windows, How do I get the proper library in windows? which is the library I need?
I'm using "Qt Creator user the kit Desktop Qt 5.7.0 MinGW 32bit."
Thank you.
I'm downloading linux, a live version, to try to run the code in there
The error occurs when trying to build a project that depends on the deprecated QtDeclarative module on Qt version 5.6 and later, as the module was removed in version 5.6.
The source code for the module is still available you can compile it from source. Or you can install a Qt version below Qt 5.6 to build the project.
You probably don't have declarative library installed somehow, here it is recommended to use a command-line utility named windeployqt, something like
windeployqt -declarative

CMake doesn't find Qt5QuickCompiler

I'm trying to build a Qt Quick Controls application with CMake. I use the following documentation:
http://doc.qt.io/QtQuickCompiler/qquickcompiler-building-with-cmake.html
When running CMake, I'm getting this error:
By not providing "FindQt5QuickCompiler.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this
project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
"Qt5QuickCompiler", but CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5QuickCompiler"
with any of the following names:
Qt5QuickCompilerConfig.cmake
qt5quickcompiler-config.cmake
at this line:
FIND_PACKAGE(Qt5QuickCompiler)
Obviously CMake doesn't find Qt5QuickCompiler. I checked in my Qt folder (C:\Qt) but it's not there. Yet I could run this application with QMake.
What do I need to set in order to find Qt5QuickCompiler?
I just stumbled upon the same issue with Qt 5.12 under Linux. The documentation under https://doc.qt.io/QtQuickCompiler/qquickcompiler-building-with-cmake.html currently seems to be wrong.
Use QuickCompiler after COMPONENTS in the Qt5 find_package instead of trying to add it via find_package(Qt5QuickCompiler). Adapting the example from the link, use
find_package(Qt5 COMPONENTS Quick Core Network QuickCompiler)
qtquick_compiler_add_resources(RESOURCES example.qrc)
add_executable(myapp ${SRC_LIST} ${RESOURCES)
instead of
find_package(Qt5 COMPONENTS Quick Core Network)
find_package(Qt5QuickCompiler)
qtquick_compiler_add_resources(RESOURCES example.qrc)
add_executable(myapp ${SRC_LIST} ${RESOURCES)
The error is pretty clear: CMake doesn't have a module for the Qt5QuickCompiler to find it. It just doesn't know what it is. I've just checked the corresponding cmake folder and it doesn't have that file. I'm not sure what that Qt documentation page is talking about but there is no such a file in the CMake distribution. Maybe Qt sources have this file somewhere?
You need to build Qt5 with Qt Quick compiler which you can download from http://www.qt.io/qt-quick/. In the build directory of Qt Quick compiler, you will find Qt5QuickCompilerConfig.cmake.
Copy the path to this directory, and add to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH like this
cmake -DCMAKE_PRFEIX_PATH=<pathToFile> <pathToSrcDirOfYourProject>

How To Compile QFtp Example in Qt 5?

I have application which uses QFtp class.I have made in Qt 4 version.
But now i want to complie QFtp classe in Qt5 but it's showing some error like:
'QFtp' doesn't name and type.
how to resolve this issue. I don't want to use QNetworkAccessManager. is there any way to this?
Thank you
For the sake of completeness, the steps to use the add-ons are:
Download the sources for the add-on from https://github.com/qt/qtftp
Extract the sources somewhere (e.g. Qt5.x.y/Src/qtmyaddon)
Open a console in that folder
Read readme.txt and run the appropriate commands with the latest QT version
Run qmake
Run make (or nmake or mingw32-make or whatever)
Run sudo make install (nmake install, mingw32-make install, ...)
In the .pro file of your project, add "QT += myaddon" (e.g. "QT += ftp")
Run qmake on your project
Compile your project

Error in OpenCV configuration for Qt Creator

I followed these instructions in the configuration of OpenCV SDK for using it in Qt Creator IDE, but I couldn't conclude point 6.5, due to configuration errors in Cmake-GUI. I setup the configuration in CMake of the compilers gcc and g++ contained in Qt folder for MinGW32, and all looks Ok. But when Cmake-GUI starts the process of build configuration it ends up saying
"Error in configuration process, project files may be invalid".
It can't find the following:
QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE;
Qt5Concurrent_DIR;
QT5Core_DIR;
QT5Gui_DIR;
QT5Test_DIR;
QT5Widgets_DIR.
After this issue I tried to go on with following points of configuration tutorial, without reaching the final instruction of mingw32-make install. I'm using the following versions of softwares: Qt 5.3.0, OpenCV 2.4.9, CMake 2.8.12.2. My OS is Windows 7.
How can I recover the missing Qt files in CMake configuration?
Is there an alternative way for configuring OpenCV with Qt (like using precompiled build of OpenCV libraries)?
You just need to indicate CMake the correct paths to each one. Click oh the path to browse and set each one individually:
QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE;
For this one, you need to search inside the Qt installation folder for the /bin directory. On it, you' ll find the qmake.exe. In my case it was C:/Qt/5.3/winrt_x64/bin/qmake.exe
All the following ones are in the Qt's /lib/cmake directory. In my case: C:/Qt/5.3/winrt_x64/lib/cmake :
Qt5Concurrent_DIR;
C:/Qt/5.3/winrt_x64/lib/cmake/Qt5Concurrent
QT5Core_DIR;
C:/Qt/5.3/winrt_x64/lib/cmake/Qt5Core
QT5Gui_DIR;
C:/Qt/5.3/winrt_x64/lib/cmake/Qt5Gui
QT5Test_DIR;
C:/Qt/5.3/winrt_x64/lib/cmake/Qt5Test
QT5Widgets_DIR.
C:/Qt/5.3/winrt_x64/lib/cmake/Qt5Widgets
Then click generate. It' ll show a new error and ask you for the QT5OpenGL_DIR. Just as before, show CMake the correct directory. In my case: C:/Qt/5.3/winrt_x64/lib/cmake/Qt5OpenGL. Finally, click Configure again, and then Generate, and now you're done creating the build files.
You have to specify the location of Qt manually by passing it as an argument for QT5Core_DIR. Qt5_DIR or CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH does also the trick.
Example
Given your Qt 5 is installed at /opt/selfcompiled/Qt5. When calling cmake, add the flag from above:
cmake -DQt5_DIR=/opt/selfcompiled/Qt5 <pathToSourceDir>
Once the Qt 5 directory is set and found by CMake, all the other variables related to Qt 5 should be found from there, too.

Unable to configure Qt for static building
