My guess:
Since it’s trying to use https, Qt needs to find OpenSSL (on Lin/Win). Qt’s 
method for finding that is not failsafe (to say the least), and it also isn’t 
made easy with the various incompatible versions of it.
I think Help > System Information from Qt Creator’s menu should show you some 
information about if and what SSL library is found.
