opendbviewer$ make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Please read our compilation instructions.

1. ./build.sh regen
2. make

[kevintrannz]

Ah sorry. The first command was failed as following:

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
CMakeFiles/cmTC_aea5e.dir/build.make:97: recipe for target 'cmTC_aea5e' failed
make[1]: *** [cmTC_aea5e] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/opt/dev/softs/databases/opendbviewer/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp'
Makefile:126: recipe for target 'cmTC_aea5e/fast' failed
make: *** [cmTC_aea5e/fast] Error 2

Is it the trace produced by the ./build.sh regen command? I think not... Be careful to execute this command in your /opt/dev/softs/databases/opendbviewer directory (I think this is where you cloned the project). Then please show the corresponding trace.

[kevintrannz]

It is in /opt/dev/softs/databases/opendbviewer/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log after the run first command. Which dir should I execute the command?

[N0un]

First, which is you OS?
Go to this cloned project directory (example: if you called git clone ... in /dir/mydir, then go to /dir/mydir/opendbviewer). Then, in this opendbviewer directory, please call ./build.sh regen and copy the terminal displayed trace here.

[kevintrannz]

It is Linux. Yes, that is correct directory. the errors were not about the directory, is it?

To reproduce:

1. Check out the code to any folder
2. Run below command inside code folder
   ./build.sh regen

Ok but which Linux are you using?

This step failed because some required packages are missing on your system. Please read this project's README.md. We explain in this file all the necessary steps to compile this project, including required packages installation on a Linux Debian based.

Command on Debian:
sudo apt-get install qtbase5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libqt5sql5-sqlite libqt5sql5-mysql libqt5sql5-psql

After packages installation, please try again the ./build.sh regen and make (if the previous succeed) commands.

[kevintrannz]

It is Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Yes. I did follow the doc before submitting this ticket.

Maybe an other package is needed and we miss it in our documentation... Please try to install this package:
sudo apt-get install qttools5-dev
and retry.

[kevintrannz]

Great. it works now. Thank you.

[N0un]

No problem! :)
