    Default Trying to compile Qt 5.9.1: No such file or directory

    I'm trying to compile Qt 5.9.1 from source on Windows 10 using msvc 2015. My process was as follows:

    1. Installed python 2.7.13, added it to PATH
    2. Set up the qt5vars.cmd file as specified in the documentation (which calls vcvarsall.bat amd64 and sets up PATH)
    3. Installed jom
    4. mkdir build-release, cd build-release
    5. ..\configure -prefix C:\Qt\5.9.1\msvc2015 -nomake examples -opensource
    6. jom (started compilation)


    After a long time, this error pops up:

    Who knows? It's hard to build Qt from source. The Qt 5.9.1 binaries are available for download from the Qt web site for MSVC 2015 (and others), so just download, install it, and start developing instead of spinning your wheels trying to understand obscure build problems that you'll probably never be able to fix?

    The reason I'm compiling it is because I'd like to target x64.

    Huh, I stand corrected. I have a commercial license for Qt, and when I go in thorough my login there, I see this distribution:

    Package includes following prebuilt binaries:

    Qt for MinGW 5.3.0 32-bit desktop
    Qt for MSVC 2013 64-bit desktop
    Qt for MSVC 2015 32- & 64-bit desktop
    Qt for MSVC 2015 UWP x86, x64 & ARMv7
    Qt for MSVC 2017 64-bit desktop
    Qt for MSVC 2017 UWP x86, x64 & ARMv7
    Qt for Android x86 and ARMv7
    It really sucks that this is not available for download to people who go through the open source route. It really diminishes my respect for The Qt Company if this really is the case.

    On the downloads page, the only option I see is "Qt 5.9.1 for Windows (2.3 GB)", which is the 32-bit package.

    What I ended up doing is not building the QtWebEngine component with:

    Qt Code: 
    1. configure -skip qtwebengine
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Since in my case I don't need it, this is fine.

    Yes, that's all I see when I go into the site without logging in. I mistakenly assumed that the distributions I see when I log in are available to everyone.

    But it also sucks that The Qt Company has an open-source source code release that can't be built in its entirety. So not only can you not download pre-built binaries for certain configurations, you also can't build them yourself without excluding parts of them. QtWebEngine -is- part of the pre-built MSVC 2013 x64 release, so obviously The Qt Company can build it internally.

    Hi TheComet.

    I know some time has passed but I was facing the same problem as you for 5.9.2.
    Failing for the same error.
    But I've found the solution.
    You can find it here https://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_5_from_Git

    Where it says
    """
    Windows

    Note that if you're shadow-building Qt, the source directory and build directory must be on the same drive, nested equally deeply. Also, make sure there are no old build artifacts in the source directory.
    """
    When they build chromium the have encoded relative paths in the build script.
    So I had the sources in
    c:\qt-5.9.2\
    and I was building in
    c:\build\qt-5.9.2-x64\
    and the build failed
    I changed the build directory to
    c:\build-qt-5.9.2-x64
    and now it works

    I hope this will help you too and the next one will reach this page.
