      Can anyone explain how to install 6.0.0 from sources on macOS (11 Big Sur)? Apparently 6.0.0+ will not have
      off-line installers (for open-source license, at least), so my option is to build from 6.0.0 sources (or wait who knows
      how long for the qt online install app to work again).

      I've got the sources: the file called "qt-everywhere-src-6.0.0.tar.gz" by doing:

      cd /tmp
      wget https://qt-mirror.dannhauer.de/official_releases/qt/6.0/6.0.0/single/qt-everywhere-src-6.0.0.tar.xz
      tar xzvf qt-everywhere-src-6.0.0.tar.xz
      cd qt-everwhere-src-6.0.0
      

      The README still talks about 5.x installation, and the 'Linux, Mac:' section is saying to do:

      ./configure --prefix $PWD/qtbase -opensource -nomake tests
      make -j 4
      

      Error I get:

      qt-everywhere-src-6.0.0 $ ./configure --prefix $PWD/qtbase -opensource -nomake tests
      + cd qtbase
      + /tmp/qt-everywhere-src-6.0.0/qtbase/configure -top-level --prefix /tmp/qt-everywhere-src-6.0.0/qtbase -opensource -nomake tests
      CMake Error at qtbase/cmake/QtProcessConfigureArgs.cmake:227 (message):
        Invalid command line parameter '/tmp/qt-everywhere-src-6.0.0/qtbase'.
      Call Stack (most recent call first):
        qtbase/cmake/QtProcessConfigureArgs.cmake:503 (qtConfAddError)
      

      Appreciate any pointers!

      @craigmac You can just reference what Homebrew does. Although homebrew is now trying to upgrade to Qt6. By the way, issue still present at this time.

          Quoting Tuukka:

          Hi,
           
          Status update of the problem with open-source downloads: Last night we finally got a disk big enough for the packages from the service provider. Most of the data has been transferred throughout the night with a few last things still being uploaded to the new virtual server. After the data transfer is complete we start testing and validation of the data and the system. Target is to enable first the online installer, then the offline packages and finally the achieve of old releases.
           
          Yours,

            @StenGay You have to install Qt also. And a compiler (on Windows select Qt for MinGW).

              @StenGay I'm also new to Qt but as far as I know Qt creator and Qt are different things. So what you have to install are Qt and a working compiler( e.g. MinGW).

              BTW I think this is a perfect excuse to have your ddl extended lol. Just slap the blog on your teacher('s face).

                  @craigmac said in download.qt.io is down ?:

                  --prefix

                  Use -prefix (no double --) .

                    @kkoehne I can confirm that it does work -- I just downloaded Design Studio 2.

                    Thanks to all who worked hard to get us back in the water...

                              @andrestoga Your download started, which means that your PC was able to establish a connection with download.qt.io. However, the connection broke before it was able to complete.

                              Please try again: Are you able to get past the error? Or does it keep stopping at 22%?

                                  For the moment you can install Qt from any mirror using aqtinstall (=> Another Qt Installer), which is actually meant for automatic installations from command line. It won't install QtCreator, though. Only libraries and binaries for building your project. Check out the aqtinstall github page for a manual: https://github.com/miurahr/aqtinstall

                                  1. Download Python and check "Add to PATH"

                                  2. pip install aqtinstall

                                  3. Install Qt with aqt:

                                  C: & cd C:\ & mkdir C:\Qt

                                  python -m aqt install --base https://qt-mirror.dannhauer.de/ --outputdir c:\Qt 5.15.2 windows desktop win64_msvc2019_64

                                    @andrestoga said in download.qt.io is down ?:

                                    @JKSH No, I am not able to get past the error. It keeps stopping at 22% with the same file.

                                    Hmm... what happens if you select Qt 5.15.2 instead of Qt 5.15.0?

                                    If you still have no luck, you can try this 3rd-party installer: https://github.com/miurahr/aqtinstall

                                    Where I can find other mirrors?

                                    A list of mirrors can be found at https://download.qt.io/static/mirrorlist/ -- click on the "HTTP" link to get the mirror URL

                                        Just released Qt Online installer 4.0.1-1 has now option to specify the mirror for the open source installation.
                                        See https://wiki.qt.io/Online_Installer_4.x#Selecting_a_mirror_for_opensource

                                          The issue is primarily MaintenanceTool ... If it cannot pull down any lists then one cannot update ;-) Thanks for the installer tips
