My mistake, it's still unresolved

[SGaist]

Do you have the same result with just the stock zip file ? Without any modification.

@SGaist

I tried qtbase, it's failed too.

Use out of source builds.
Also, are you working from a fresh source folder ?

@SGaist
Failed too.

@SGaist Yes, I just download and unzip qtbase, I want to try qt, but it's empty in github release.

[SGaist]

Don't use GitHub to download the Qt sources zip file. Use the official one provided by the Qt Company.

[ShylockHg]

@SGaist
Fine, it's ok when I download form https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.15/5.15.2/single/

[SGaist]

The reason is that GitHub just zips the content of the repository.
The official archives are ready to configure/build for the platform selected (.zip for Windows and tar.gz for unix like).
