Qt: Project ERROR: Could not resolve SDK Path for 'macosx'

[medvednikov]

Hi,

I'm trying to install it on macOS. I've tried with both brew qt5 and qt's official installer.

ERRO[0010] failed to run command cmd="/Users/alex/Qt5.8.0/5.8/clang_64/bin/qmake Users/alex/src/github.com/therecipe/qt/core.pro -spec macx-clang CONFIG+=x86_64 CONFIG+=release" env= error="exit status 3" func=RunCmdOptional name="run qmake for darwin on darwin"

Project ERROR: Could not resolve SDK Path for 'macosx'

go version go1.8.1 darwin/amd64

I've followed all the instructions.

This may also be useful:

Hey

Thanks for the infos :)

You are probably on an older macOS version or? With some older Xcode version? 7.x or something?

I found a few post that are probably related to your issue:

http://community.mrtrix.org/t/setup-error/673/2
(This one suggests that you probably need to start Xcode once)

Sorry, forgot to mention that. 10.12 Sierra, Xcode 8.

I'll try that, thanks.

[therecipe]

Mh, then it should work.
Maybe you really only need to start Xcode once to install the command line tools.

Or maybe try to run: xcode-select --install that will tell you if you need to install the tools, or if they are already installed.

[medvednikov]

Ok, that was an easy fix

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41513456/qt-5-7-xcode-8-1-os-x-el-captain-could-not-resolve-sdk-path-for-macosx

Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations -> Command Line Tools -> select SDK

Thanks :)

[therecipe]

Great, thanks for letting me know :)
