      @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

                      @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:

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

                        And yea,use qt sql it just give like 11 error

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

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

                                idk if i misunderstanded what u mean,but it still give error ;/
                                or u mean i have to remove that -L

                                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

                                        "Drop the lib prefix": -lmysql

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

                                          @SGaist ok its weird,it now dont give any error.But its EXCELENT!
                                          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>
                                          #include <QtSql/QSqlDatabase>
                                          #include <QtSql/QSqlDriver>
                                          #include <QtSql/QSqlQuery>
                                          

                                          and i also added sql to Qt in Profile

                                          QT       += core gui sql
