ended up having to walk through dependency walker to solve as some necessary dll files were not where they needed to be.

@Persivan said in QMYSQL driver not found after release:

Any ideas?

Yes, use search function in this forum - this is asked so often.
Most probably the MySQL driver lib is missing.

@SGaist Hello! I'm building a second app using QMySQL database, the first app (the one about this topic) works perfectly as expected, but the second tells me that the driver isn't loaded.

QSqlDatabase: MYSQL driver not loaded QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE QMYSQL QMYSQL3 QODBC QODBC3 QPSQL QPSQL7

I added mysql dll dir in PATH environment variable, but same problem stay the same..

Have you an idea please?

EDIT: nevermind, I'm just stupid, I forgot the "Q" before "MYSQL" call in code line:

QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("MYSQL");

Now it's:

QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");

and strangely, works better..

Again, thank you all for your help!

@SGaist said in MySQL + Qt 5.7 integration on Ubuntu 16.04:

Indeed, however I did misread, the calls seem to have been done.
But something looks wrong since the .so files can't be found.

Interesting to see what ldd on libqsqlmysql.so displays now, after creating the link:

Seems like it changed the entire dependency table.

Glad you found out and thanks for sharing !
