Issue Deploying Qt app to my Beaglebone Black

[MarkB]

Hi All,

I want to learn how to use Qt on the Beaglebone Black. I used the steps outlined on “embedded.von-kannen.net”. I created a vm using the recommended version of lubuntu and followed all of the instructions to download and build Qt Creator and install Qt on the BBB. I was having great success and able to build a simple Helloworld app. I setup the debugger and it reported that it could connect to the target( the BBB ). Then the issue.

I tried to deploy the app to the target and got the following error: “The remote file system has 0 megabytes of free space, but 5 megabyte are required” . When I examine the BBB using “free -m” it reports that I have 372 megabytes of free space available.

Is there some process that should be running on the BBB and if so what is it?

Regards,
Mark

SSH server is the only required piece of software on the target board. However 'free' returns the amount of RAM available, not free disk space. The latter cam be checked with df.
