I am attempting to get PyQt4 running on a windows 10 device with python 3.6.3. I have sips
installed and built already in my python directory. However, when I run the configure.py/configure-ng.py
file in the PyQt4 folder I get the following error: Error: Make sure you have a working Qt qmake on your PATH.
I'm not sure how to fix this problem or what qmake
is. I apprectiate any answers on how to fix this!
To fix this, you need to find out where the qmake executable lives on your system. If you know where the executable installed, just add that directory to your path. If you don't know, you'll have to find it somehow, by searching your computer.
Show activity on this post. qmake is the name of Qt's build tool, which generates Makefiles or other files needed to compile code on any platform that Qt supports. To fix this, you need to find out where the qmake executable lives on your system.
Error: /usr/bin/qmake failed to create a makefile. Make sure you have a working Qt qmake on your PATH or use the -q argument to explicity specify a working Qt qmake
shall I ask what is that ../qt5_sourcecode/configure.... @Asha qt5_sourcecode is just a placeholder for the directory where you extracted Qt source code, replace it with the name of your Qt source code directory... configure is what it is - configure command in Qt source code directory.
