    @ELEMENTICY said in Connect to MYSQL failed in Qt:

    And yea,i copy the mysql include and lib folder to the project folder

    But you don't link against the mysql libs in your pro file.

    What does not work with the QtSql plugin?

    @Christian-Ehrlicher i do,

    win32:CONFIG(release, debug|release): LIBS += -L$$PWD/lib/libmysql
    else:win32:CONFIG(debug, debug|release): LIBS += -L$$PWD/lib/libmysqld
    else:unix: LIBS += -L$$PWD/lib/libmysql
    

    And yea,use qt sql it just give like 11 error
    And if i use official mysql mysql.h,it only give 2 error which is undefine

    And yea,or i need to change my profile's lib code to this?

    win32:CONFIG(release, debug|release): LIBS += -L$$PWD/lib/libmysql.lib
    else:win32:CONFIG(debug, debug|release): LIBS += -L$$PWD/lib/libmysqld.lib
    else:unix: LIBS += -L$$PWD/lib/libmysql.lib

          @Christian-Ehrlicher bcuz it give too much error,i rather use official mysql header
          Qt6 has alot of stuff doesnt exist.Like web browser
          So i rather use the official mysql header and it give less error

          These are the only error:
          error: undefined reference to 'mysql_init'

          error: undefined reference to 'mysql_real_connect'

          error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) clang++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) make: *** [Makefile:73: libPos_x86_64.so] Error 1

          Use Qt sql give like 11 error or more/less

            The SQL module is supported in Qt 6. However the MySQL plugin might not be provided because Oracle changed their licensing.

            As for your build issue: -L is for giving path to search, it's -l for stating the name of the library.

              So the QtSql module has no errors - please stay specific!

              else:unix: LIBS += -L$$PWD/lib/libmysql.lib

              This is for sure not correct.

                        No space no "lib" prefix.

                        It's explained in the documentation

                                    You have to understand what -L and -l each do. I have already explained that before. So please re-read the corresponding answers.

                                      Oracle does not provide pre-built binaries for Android.

                                        @SGaist dude,im so tired...
                                        Can you pleaseee write the 3 lines of code for me?
                                        Please... i hope after you see this message,you wont just ignore and think i never hard work on it..But im tired for just add a simple library already...
                                        It will be the BEST help for me

                                        My current code...

                                        win32:CONFIG(release, debug|release): LIBS += $$PWD/lib/ -llibmysql
                                        else:win32:CONFIG(debug, debug|release): LIBS += $$PWD/lib/ -llibmysqld
                                        else:unix: LIBS += $$PWD/lib/ -llibmysql
                                        

                                        Error:
                                        :-1: error: error: cannot open C:/Users/ELEMENT/Documents/PosSystem/Pos/lib/: Permission denied
                                        I opened QT Creator with Administrator,still same...

                                        I also tried..

                                        win32:CONFIG(release, debug|release): LIBS += $$PWD/lib/libmysql
                                        else:win32:CONFIG(debug, debug|release): LIBS += $$PWD/lib/libmysqld
                                        else:unix: LIBS += $$PWD/lib/libmysql
                                        

                                        Error:
                                        :-1: error: no such file or directory: 'C:/Users/ELEMENT/Documents/PosSystem/Pos/lib/libmysql' clang++: error: no such file or directory: 'C:/Users/ELEMENT/Documents/PosSystem/Pos/lib/libmysql' make: *** [Makefile:79: libPos_x86_64.so] Error 1
                                        Seems like that one is the wrong way to do without adding -l

                                        appreciate it...

                                          @SGaist I removed:

                                          win32:CONFIG(release, debug|release): LIBS += $$PWD/lib/ -llibmysql
                                          else:win32:CONFIG(debug, debug|release): LIBS += $$PWD/lib/ -llibmysqld
                                          else:unix: LIBS += $$PWD/lib/ -llibmysql
                                          

                                          And tried only

                                          LIBS += -L"lib" -llibmysql
                                          

                                          Still error:
                                          :-1: error: error: cannot find -llibmysql
