QSqlDatabase: QPSQL driver not loaded

[Redman]

@Christian-Ehrlicher Thanks for the explanation.

How do I know which postgres libs are needed? I tried using dependencie.exe to see which one I would need but couldnt find anything.

EDIT:
The postgresql/bin folder is in my PATH variable. So the deployed app should find all needed libraries, but doesnt.
(Deployed app is on my dev machine, just different folder)
When executing my app from QtCreator all works fine. When executing the deployed app its not.

[Christian Ehrlicher]

None of the plugins you showed are loaded and there are different paths. Please make sure that you don't have other Qt installations in your PATH. Also what Qt version is your app linked against? Please show the full output. From my pov you did not use windeployqt.

I have Qt 6.8.1 installed, and thats the only version on my machine.
C:\Dev\Qt\6.8.1\msvc2022_64\bin is the only entry in PATH that points to Qt.

For installation/deployment of my app I use following CMake command

    install(TARGETS ${name}
        RUNTIME DESTINATION  ${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINDIR}
    )
qt_generate_deploy_qml_app_script(
		TARGET ${name}
		OUTPUT_SCRIPT deploy_script
	)
	install(SCRIPT ${deploy_script})

This is the full output (before my app specific output starts) if I run my app from QtCreator.

If I run my app from install dir this is the output:

QSqlDatabase: QPSQL driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers:

This problem occurs after I restructured my app linking all targets statically to dynamically.

EDIT:
After copying all *.dll from PostgresSQL/bin to my app install folder I get the same result.

[Christian Ehrlicher]

@Redman said in uses incompatible Qt library. (Cannot mix debug and release libraries.)":

:\Dev\Qt\6.8.1\msvc2022_64\bin is the only entry in PATH that points to Qt

Remove this when you want to check if windeployqt worked correctly. I Don get see that you called windeployqt anywhere so that needed the dlls and plugins are copied.

Client > DEBUG: "C:/Dev/Qt/6.8.1/msvc2022_64/plugins/sqldrivers/qsqlpsql.dll" loaded library

From the plugin debug message, the psql plugin is loaded successfully.

This is the full output (before my app specific output starts) if I run my app from QtCreator.

If I run my app from install dir this is the output:

Well, that makes sense, so what's your plugin debug output when running from install dir?

[Redman]

@Christian-Ehrlicher

This is the output I get if I call ninja.exe install

@Bonnie I tried to do that but it did not work.
I opened powershell and tried to

Set-Variable -Name "QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS" -Value "1"

and then execute my app. All I see is

Client >>> WARNING: QSqlDatabase: QPSQL driver not loaded
Client >>> WARNING: QSqlDatabase: available drivers:

After that I added "QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS":1 to my system environment varaibles and restarted the powershell and execute my app again.
Same result.
If you could enlighten me how to achieve that in my install dir I would be very thankfull.

[Bonnie]

@Redman Well from the output apparently it did not copy the sqldrivers plugins.
I don't know why since I'm not familiar with qt_generate_deploy_qml_app_script.
How about copy them manually?

[Redman]

@Bonnie Indeed the sqldriver plugin was not copied. I did that manually and now the output says

Client >>> WARNING: QSqlDatabase: QPSQL driver not loaded
Client >>> WARNING: QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE QMIMER QODBC QPSQL

Managed to make it work.
Following plugins were not installed with windeployqt (bug?)

• sqldrivers plugin
• opcua plugin

Furthermore, I had to copy the postgresql dlls into my install folder. For now I copy all of them, maybe I can narrow it down since I can not find any documentation on that.

[JonB]

@Redman
set QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 should be giving more diagnostic output than you are reporting. You should be getting output like you showed from Creator. I don't know about PowerShell, are you able to open a standard Command Prompt, set this variable and try running your application from there?

[Redman]

@JonB I tried it in cmd and it gave me the output. As I mentioned in my post before, windeployqt does not install the sqldriver/opcua plugin.

Even though I use them in my project

# Declare needed Qt modules
find_package(Qt6 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Core Test Sql Quick QuickControls2 Network OpcUa)
qt_standard_project_setup(REQUIRES 6.8)

# Link against libraries
target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE
    Qt${QT_MAJOR_VERSION}::Quick
    Qt${QT_MAJOR_VERSION}::QuickControls2
    Qt${QT_VERSION_MAJOR}::Sql
    Qt${QT_VERSION_MAJOR}::OpcUa
)

[JonB]

@Redman said in uses incompatible Qt library. (Cannot mix debug and release libraries.)":

As I mentioned in my post before, windeployqt does not install the sqldriver/opcua plugin.

Ah, OK, I know nothing about windeployqt, hopefully someone else will be able to help.

[Redman]

So I managed to resolve the issue:
First of all, following error

QSqlDatabase: QPSQL driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers:

indicates, that in the install directory plugins/sqldrivers and its contents is missing.
This is usually detected by windeployqt.exe.
If this is not the case adding --include-plugins qsqlpsql as argument to windeployqt.exe solves the issue.
qsqlpsql is for PostgreSQL.

This resulted in following output when running the app:

Client >>> WARNING: QSqlDatabase: QPSQL driver not loaded
Client >>> WARNING: QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE QMIMER QODBC QPSQL

Which means, that the PostgreSQL runtime was not installed correctly. To solve this I simply did

find_package(PostgreSQL)
list(GET PostgreSQL_INCLUDE_DIRS 0 PSQLINCLUDEDIR)
install(FILES ${PSQLINCLUDEDIR}/../bin/libcrypto-3-x64.dll DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINDIR})
install(FILES ${PSQLINCLUDEDIR}/../bin/libssl-3-x64.dll DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINDIR})
install(FILES ${PSQLINCLUDEDIR}/../bin/libpq.dll DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINDIR})
