Qt Creator: How do I install or run my app on the n900?
 

Hi!
I succesfully set up my developing environment with madden and all the stuff.
I created a hello world programm; 2 buttons & 1 Label
click on the one its say hello world and click on the other it closes the programm

In qt creator when I click on run, the app opens on my n900 and everything is working fine.

But how do I get this app on the n900 without madden and qt creator

I have a deb file and a exuctable file

sayhi_0.1_armel.deb
Try to run it, app manager appears and it shows that the apps programmpakets are not compatible

sayHi
try to run it, permission denied,
try to chmod r+x sayHi and then ./sayHi
is also not working ls -l shows me that chmod did nothing
try as user, as sudo and gainroot

any help please?

try chmod u+x instead. I don't think the r is valid in your chmod.

nothing
always at
-rw-r--r--

Is the file saved under MyDocs? If so, it's saved in a VFAT file system that lacks bits like these.

Move the file to /home/user and do chmod 755 <filename>.

Should also work. Or at least give more details about the problem.

thanks
yeah it was under MyDocs

ok now I can set the permission and run it
but its looking not weird
now the background is grey not black
also the buttons grey not black

ok dpkg i- sayhi.deb does the work, but where I can find the app or how can I run it...the installed one.

thanks for the help!!!

thats going to depend where your deb installs it to.

You need a .desktop file to see it in the applications list, otherwise a:

Will list the path to everything it installed. Run it with the full path, such as:

Don't run your application as root, but as the normal user.

There might be a way, using run-standalone.sh or something similar, to run applications as root and get the Hildon theme but I've never mucked about with it.

Also getting similar problems. I have my .deb generated by Qt Creator. Tried installing it with dpkg -i, with no luck. dpkg -L prints out that the package is not installed. Argg.

it would help if you show us the error dpkg -i gives you.

Remember to be in the same directory as the .deb, or provide a full path to it.

Here's how I do it:

I use MADDE for packaging and only use Qt Creator's feature that simply copies over the app's binary and runs it, without packaging.
It is also much faster this way, especially if you (like me) tend to run your apps often.
This is not possible with the RC nor the 2.0 final version, but the beta works this way. (and it seems that some of the latest nightlies also have this functionality)
