QPixmap is null on other machines

[sepehr]

I have a pixmap in my program which works fine on my developing machine
QPixmap pic("c:/01.jpg");
but when I execute the program on another machine it doesn't seem to be loaded because the size method returns QSize(0,0) and when calling scaled method I get "pixmap is a null pixmap",I've tried it on couple of machines and permission issues are fine.
what seems to be the problem?

JPG is not supported directly by Qt.
You will need to copy jpg plugin dll to the new machine.
You can find it in QT_DIR/4.x.x/plugins/imageformats :)

Hi,

I think the problem is not about the format of the image file, check the C drive out for 01.jpg as amulya said.

Dear all,

I'm experiencing the same problem and I cannot solved it.
I have a Qt Application that generates some .gif files and displays it on QLabel. It works fine on the DE I'm working with (MSVC Express 2008)
I deployed the Qt Application and run it on another Windows machine. The application runs but when it opens the .gif images it return the error
QPixmap::scaled: QPixmap is a NULL QPixmap. The path of the file is correct, I already check it.

I also copied the qgif4.dll in the libraries needed by my application but still doesn't work.
Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance for any help

Hi, the qgif4.dll needs to be located in the "imageformats" sub-directory, not in the directory where the other DLLs like qtgui4.dll are placed.
