QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL driver not loaded / Build MySQL Plugin

[RalfSchaefer]

@SGaist Thanks for your help!! That's it. Now all works fine for me!

[fikou1335]

Hi SGaist,

I have a new problem with QMysql, everything worked fine since today, actually when I executede this line

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

I have this error

libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work

I don't know why,

the plugin is correctly compiled without error, and using the ldd he found the libgcc_s.so.1

Can you help me please!

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Which architecture are on ?

If I comment the addBase line in my code everything works fine without connecting to the Database of course.
when I try to list the drivers using

QStringList driverlist =QSqlDatabase::drivers();

I got this

Databases: QSQLITE QMYSQL3 QMYSQL

Everything works fine Monday, I checked the database, I could write on it fine,, but yesterday, it crash my application
hope it can help!

[fikou1335]

I have just created a new app with the main function and it works and connect fine to my database.

In my code I comment all the last code that I added this week and SURPRISE it works as well.
the problem is probably due to a third library that i started to use this week. I ll check why it cause a crach to mysql o_O

[SGaist]

What new library did you add ?

[fikou1335]

This one Dahua SDK

You can check by yourslef, they have a source example, PTZControl that works fine, but try to add

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

and you should get the same error.

this sdk is used to control PTZ cams of Dahua brand.
I changed my code by creating a new app to control cameras and get the informations of position from my big application.

put this main instsead of it

#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include "dialog.h"
#include <QTextCodec>
#include <QObject>
#include <QtSql/QSqlDatabase>
#include <QStringList>
#include <QtSql/QSqlQuery>
#include <QtSql/QSqlRecord>
#include <QVariant>
#include <iostream>



int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QSqlDatabase DB;
    cout <<endl<< "try connect MYSQL "<< endl;
    try
    {
        DB = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase( "QMYSQL");
    }
    catch(...)
    {
        cout << "fatal error"<< endl;
    }
    cout << "add database"<< endl;
    DB.setDatabaseName( "intrusiondetection" );
    DB.setUserName( "root" );

    DB.setPassword( "root" );
    cout << "1"<< endl;

    DB.setHostName( "" );

    cout << "try to connect"<< endl;
    if (DB.open())
    {
        cout << "QMYSQL correctly connected "<< endl;
    }
    else
    {
        cout << "QMYSQL not connected "<< endl;
    }


    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    QTextCodec::setCodecForCStrings(QTextCodec::codecForName("UTF-8"));
    Dialog w;
    w.show();

    return a.exec();
}

tell me if you got the same error.?

[SGaist]

One thing that you should first correct: move the database initialization code after the QApplication object creation.

[fikou1335]

i already tried every configuration but doesn't work! just a question by the way:
Is the QDbus available on the Ubuntu system since they said it is Unix only library..? I try to communicate between PTZcontrol process and my application

[SGaist]

Ubuntu is a unix based OS since it's based on the Debian distribution. QDBus is available on Linux, OS X and Windows (the two later requires that you install dbus by hand)
