Installation Error

[patrickm]

I am trying to install Qt Creator on Ubuntu 1804 and I am getting this error:

Error during installation process (qt.qt6.630.gcc_64):
Could not find the required QmakeOutputInstallerKey(qt.qt6.630.gcc_64_qmakeoutput) value on the installer object. The ConsumeOutput operation on the valid qmake needs to be called first.

This same question/error message was reported very recently on this forum, you might search to find it.

I don't know for sure how relevant it is for Qt Creator, and that particular error message, but given https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-89388

Ubuntu 18.04 isn't supported development host for Qt6,

how far do you expect to get with Qt6 anyway?

@JonB Thanks I'll try installing on 20.04

@finch Hi and welcome to devnet,

Based on the 6.7 supported platform list, you need Ubuntu 22.04.

I am getting a similar error. I am using WSL Ubuntu 24.04 with GCC 13.3.0

@NathanJS

hi, i think it could be related to qmake.

@NathanJS What exactly are you installing and how?

Hi, I am installing QT 6.8.2 using the Linux x64 Online Installer.

• I downloaded the file qt-online-installer-linux-x64-4.8.1.run from here

• Then did chmod +x qt-online-installer-linux-x64-4.8.1.run

• Finally ./qt-online-installer-linux-x64-4.8.1.run

This is the message I am getting:

error during installation process (qt.qt6.681.linux_gcc_64): could not find the required qmakeoutputinstallerkey(qt.qt6.681.linux_gcc_64_qmakeoutput) value on the installer object. the consumeoutput operation on the valid qmake needs to be called first.

@NathanJS
I fixed the issue by running sudo ./qt-online-installer-linux-x64-4.8.1.run instead of ./qt-online-installer-linux-x64-4.8.1.run

I performed exactly the same procedure and encountered the same problem, but even running the command with "sudo" does not change anything.

Debian 12 on wsl2 with gcc 12.2.0

Did any one got the solution to resolve that error
