Database drivers missing

[EvIL_GuY]

Can someone upload the database drivers.dll. If you don't have time for more upload just QODBC.dll I really need it. Thank you in advance .

Build it yourself... It's faster than waiting for someone else, and any plugin DLL someone gives you has to match your compiler exactly anyway.

And don't forget Qt version too.

I lost 1 hour searching for the odbc.pro, and after opened every single folder I realized that I did not have it too.. now any other suggestion? If i uninstall it, download it again and after installing will I have that... drivers?

Install a U*ix system

$ find . -name "*odbc.pro"
./src/plugins/sqldrivers/odbc/odbc.pro

Hint: if you want to compile something, you obviously need the source code for it.

[EvIL_GuY]

$ find . -name "*odbc.pro"
./src/plugins/sqldrivers/odbc/odbc.pro

It's ok that, but I don't have the "src" folder and when searched before few hours in every "sqldriver" folder I opened there was only "qsqlite4.dll".. :S

Read my hint again.

Here are a few hints:

• Since 1995 Windows has a search function on the Start menu that can find a file by name with a minimum of fuss
• You won't find the Qt sources if you haven't installed them
• If you are using the Qt SDK then you should:
  
  • Start the updater from the Qt Creator Help menu or the Windows Start menu
  • Select Package Manager and press Next>
  • Under Qt SDK > Miscellaneous > Qt Source select the sources matching the Qt version you are building against, press Next>
  • Press Update and behold the magic
  • You will find the sources under the obscurely named "QtSources" folder of the location you installed the SDK (usually C:\QtSDK)
  • The make command is "mingw32-make" if you are using the MingW compiler
• If you are not using the SDK then you can download the sources matching your Qt binary version from the Qt download page

Ok I have downloaded the sources and I made everything from the link above and I get qsqlodbcd4.dll what should I do now?

Type:

mingw32-make install
OR
nmake install

mingw32-make install
OR
nmake install

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

as appropriate. This will copy the debug plugin, qsqlodbcd4.dll, into the correct plugins directory. That directory will be:

%QTDIR%\plugins\sqldrivers\odbc

%QTDIR%\plugins\sqldrivers\odbc

When you want to build the release version rerun the steps starting with:

qmake CONFIG+=release
OR
qmake CONFIG+=build_all

qmake CONFIG+=release
OR
qmake CONFIG+=build_all
