    Default QT Creator needs a compiler set up to build

    Hi,
    I juse installed QT 5.21 on Fedora, 64bit and when I created a default QT Quick Application project and clicked Build it won't run.
    The error message is:
    ":-1: error: Qt Creator needs a compiler set up to build. Configure a compiler in the kit options."

    Interesting thing, during project creation, there is a text message "Support Platforms: Desktop Android", but I checked the installer and the binaries in Qt/5.2.1 directory and I have both, Android and gcc_64 binaries in ./bin directory. So, why isn't supported platform of GCC 64bit isn't appearing during project template?

    Also, in my Options->Build & Run->QT Versions I have auto detected the gcc_64/bin/qmake , why isn't it using the correct qmake ?

    Weird stuff, I didn't do anything to broke something, just downloaded QT , installed it, made a project with a few clicks and it wont run. Broken installation ?

    Will appreciate any suggestions to start working.

    Thanks

    Default Re: QT Creator needs a compiler set up to build

    Solved it.
    I used online installer, and it installed both, desktop and android distribution, but the project were created by default for android, with no option to change. I removed the distribution, downloaded full installation for 64bit and now I have no problems.
