In your previous post,

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
 
    QApplication app(argc, argv);
 
    qDebug() << QSqlDatabase::drivers();
    if (!createConnection())
        return 1;
 
    Q_INIT_RESOURCE(cardiacprocessingtoolkit);
    MainWindow mainWin;
    mainWin.show();
 
 
    return app.exec();
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{

    QApplication app(argc, argv);

    qDebug() << QSqlDatabase::drivers();
    if (!createConnection())
        return 1;

    Q_INIT_RESOURCE(cardiacprocessingtoolkit);
    MainWindow mainWin;
    mainWin.show();


    return app.exec();
}

The debug message reads as:
("QSQLITE", "QMYSQL3", "QMYSQL", "QODBC3", "QODBC")

Why do you look for libmysql.lib? You already have mysql plugin.

So what does that mean? I don't need the installation files?

You don't need to rebuild QMYSQL plugin again, but you need MySQL server. Just, create(or use) a database, a table, inserting some record. Then, try to connect to mysql server using Qt, and see what happen(success or error).

Do I need to do some configuration in my *.pro file to enable the MySql?

No, but you must add sql module in your .pro.

QT += sql

Thank you. I have added this line : QT += sql in my *.pro

The server is configured on another PC and my PC is supposedly the client. Does it make a difference in my code/project?

No. But, don't forget to set the correct hostname/ip where mysql server is installed.
