    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

                @SGaist my current profile code:

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

                documentation:

                LIBS += -L"3rdparty/CatWhisperer/lib" -lCatWhisperer
                

                i got this error:
                :-1: error: error: cannot find -llibmysql

                proof that path exists:

                  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

                          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...

                                  "Drop the lib prefix": -lmysql

                                  To repeat myself: Oracle does not provide pre-built binaries for Android.

                                  Also, @Christian-Ehrlicher already asked you several times: what exact error did you get with the QtSql module ?

                                    But it unable to connect to Server
                                    My code:

                                    QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");
                                            db.setHostName("localhost");
                                            db.setDatabaseName("pos");
                                            db.setUserName("root");
                                    
                                            if (!db.open()){
                                                ui->error->setText("Oops,Unable to connect to Server!Please contact your Administrator for help.");
                                            }
                                    

                                    Includes:

                                    #include <QtSql/QSql>

                                        So your root user has no password to connect to MySQL?

                                        If db.open() fails, why don't you print out db.lastError() into your error message?

                                          Do you have a run time warning stating that the plugin cannot be loaded ?
