What you said made lots of sense, but did everything you said, and no luck - still can't find the SQL driver :/

Any other ideas?

Thanks very much for your help again

Cheers - Piers

$ /usr/local/bin/mythfrontend.app/Contents/MacOS/mythfrontend
QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL3 driver not loaded

Looking around, the missing drivers seems to point to the fact QT isn't installed, but I've compiled QT and set up the environment variable as per the instructions



    I think this is the second error I got when
trying to build a frontend, all those months ago.
(first one was that -O3 was causing virtual thunk
 errors due to stripping out the moc_* methods).


I asked:

% setup/setup -qws
Creating mouse: Auto
QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL3 driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers:
QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL3 driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers:


and J. Donavan Stanley replied:

The database driver isn't being loaded note the line "QSqlDatabase: available drivers: ", you need to have the MySQL driver built with your Qt (it's not by default).



    Basically, when you configure Qt, you need to
make sure that it is something like:

configure -system-zlib -thread -stl -freetype -qvfb -plugin-sql-mysql \
-I/usr/local/mysql-max-4.0.20-apple-darwin6.8-powerpc/include \
-L/usr/local/mysql-max-4.0.20-apple-darwin6.8-powerpc/lib

(note the -plugin-sql-mysql).

    If it was in there, then that isn't it, and it probably
means something strange with LD_LIBRARY_PATH or QTDIR.

(libqt-mt.dylib needs to open something like
 $QTDIR/plugins/sqldrivers/libsqlmysql.dylib)


    Bonne chance.
