Check this tutorial for windows, it worked for me on Qt5(though it was made for Qt4.7) so it should work for you.

MySql driver tutorial (http://ieatbinary.com/2011/07/11/how-to-enable-mysql-support-in-qt-sdk-for-windows/)

And here you can learn how to get short paths names. (http://superuser.com/questions/348079/how-can-i-find-the-short-path-of-a-windows-directory-file)
