Desktop: Getting build errors ( "Could NOT find LIBCLOUDPROVIDERS" )

[larslight11]

Following This Guys Build Procedure HERE

Everything including (cmake,openssl,QT,MinQW,Zlib,QtKeychain,Git,Visual Studios) Has been Installed as well as pkgconfig and the correct PATH hopefully have been placed.

These are the Errors im getting someone please help

[camilasan]

Hi, thanks for trying to build it :tada: :)
Could NOT find LIBCLOUDPROVIDERS -> this is just a warning, it can be ignored.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5WebEngineWidgets" -> now this is an error, you don't have $QT_PATH set and I also always add the same path in $PATH

Happy hacking!

[larslight11]

Hi thanks for the answer i added QT_PATH Already in my system variable and $path still getting the same error.

[camilasan]

Did you restart the terminal? And did you add the same path to $PATH?

[misch7]

Hey @larslight11 Have you seen our build repo for the Windows client?

https://github.com/nextcloud/client-building/

This is how we create the daily builds and releases, maybe the script there can help you to get a clue if you compare them with your build instructions :)

[larslight11]

@camilasan yea i restarted the terminal and have added to $PATH as well , still getting errors.

Thanks @misch7 will look into that repo and hopefully successfully build the client

[misch7]

@larslight11 If the error is still:

CMake Error at C:/Qt/5.12.6/msvc2017/lib/cmake/Qt5/Qt5Config.cmake:28 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by
  "Qt5WebEngineWidgets" with any of the following names:

    qt5webenginewidgets-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "Qt5WebEngineWidgets" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
  or set "Qt5WebEngineWidgets_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above
  files.  If "Qt5WebEngineWidgets" provides a separate development package or
  SDK, be sure it has been installed.

• Did you install Qt with the Qt Maintenance Tool?
  
  
  
  • If so, did you also check the "Qt WebEngine" option?
  
  

Here is a screenshot of the components I selected, when I created the build instructions:

• MSVC 2017 for 64-bit and 32-bit building
• Qt WebEngine and more, but no deprecated stuff
• _Note:_ Did not select the Debug Symbols, just because of their size

[larslight11]

Ok i did not select that , let me install and try again thanks.

[larslight11]

Now im getting this error

I really do appreciate your guys help as its my first c++ project :)

[misch7]

Now im getting this error

Could NOT find Qt5Keychain (missing: QTKEYCHAIN_LIBRARY)

CMake is unable to find the Qt Keychain library.

Taking a closer look at your command line, this parameter is missing (example):

-DQTKEYCHAIN_LIBRARY=C:\qtkeychain-master\lib\qt5keychain.lib

Note: You have to modify the path above to point to your qt5keychain.lib

If it then still fails:

-DQTKEYCHAIN_INCLUDE_DIR=C:\qtkeychain-master\qtkeychain-master 

• Are the QtKeychain includes really in C:\qtkeychain-master\qtkeychain-master ?

  Maybe it's in another : \include directory somewhere in your (output) build path?

To get a better idea how to specify the correct library defines, take a look at this file in the _client-building_ repository:

_client-building/build-desktop.bat_
https://github.com/nextcloud/client-building/blob/80b53964fcfb44b48cb04d64bfcc9a72500d8c02/build-desktop.bat#L22-L31

_Lines 22 to 31:_

set QTKEYCHAIN_PATH=%PROJECT_PATH%/libs/%BUILD_TYPE%/qtkeychain/%%G
set OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR=%OPENSSL_PATH%/%%G
set ZLIB_PATH=%PROJECT_PATH%/libs/%BUILD_TYPE%/zlib/%%G

set QTKEYCHAIN_INCLUDE_DIR=!QTKEYCHAIN_PATH!/include/qt5keychain
set QTKEYCHAIN_LIBRARY=!QTKEYCHAIN_PATH!/lib/qt5keychain.lib
set OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR=!OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR!/include
set OPENSSL_LIBRARIES=!OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR!/lib
set ZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR=!ZLIB_PATH!/include
set ZLIB_LIBRARY=!ZLIB_PATH!/lib/zlib!DLL_SUFFIX!.lib

And in your first post, zlib seems to have been found:

-- Found ZLIB: C:\zlib\lib

But just in case you later run into more trouble with zlib or other missing paths:

-DZLIB_LIBRARY=C:\zlib\lib
-DZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR=C:\zlib\
-DQT_PATH=

• zlib is likely to reside in these folders and for _LIBRARY you normally must specify a library file:

  -DZLIB_LIBRARY=C:\zlib\lib\zlib.lib
  -DZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR=C:\zlib\include
  

• QT_PATH is not specified

I really do appreciate your guys help as its my first c++ project :)

Cool, happy coding! :)

[larslight11]

Ok will do thanks , the funny thing is it found my QTKEYCHAIN before i ran into errors , now it cant find it for some reason

[larslight11]

Ok guys i had to rebuild my QTKEYCHAIN, so now its working. It built the BUILD files already in my cmake folder

now when i hit

cmake --build . --config Debug --target nextcloud
````

i get this

```

I have added Zlib already in my PATH

[misch7]

Look at my previous comment above, regarding:
-DZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR=C:\zlib\include

You need to specify it either via define like above or add it manually in the VS project settings in the include search path. I'd recommend to do it via define, like in our build scripts.

[larslight11]

Ok Thanks that worked , i had the wrong path defined . Now im getting this error

You're mixing 32-bit libraries (and so DLL's) with your 64-bit build.

I'd guess the reason is, you're having the wrong Qt bin-dir in your path:
C:/Qt/5.12.6/msvc2017/bin

You must use the 64-bit directory instead: msvc2017_64/bin

See: https://github.com/nextcloud/client-building/blob/80b53964fcfb44b48cb04d64bfcc9a72500d8c02/common.inc.bat#L14

[larslight11]

Have set the correct variable already still getting the same error

Did you create all CMake targets with?:
cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" ..

You can also check the library path in the project settings of Visual Studio.

sorry was working on another project but the only thing i built was the qtkeychain with this command
cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=%QTDIR%\lib\cmake

the %QTDIR% was set to C:\Qt\5.11.1\msvc2017 because it wasnt building with the 64bit version so i had to set it to the 32bit

then the next thing i tried to build was the client itself with this command cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" ..

also how can i check the library path in the project settings of visual studios?(still a noob on using visual studios as well)
