Can't start Flash Tool #20

Closed fisheye-u closed 9 years ago

fisheye-u commented 9 years ago

Hi. Trying to start Flash Tool, get the message: The application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "windows". Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. The same on three differet PC's (Win7). What am I doing wrong?

smurfy commented 9 years ago

can you try an older release of flashtool? 1.0rc2 for example.

fisheye-u commented 9 years ago

Yep, Flash Tool 1.1 started. Can't check how it's work right now, I'll try it later today

smurfy commented 9 years ago

ok, so only the 1.1r2 does not work on your win7. right? I will have a look tomorrow on my win7 machine.

fisheye-u commented 9 years ago

Flash Tool 1.1 working properly, firmware on my Crius was updated

mstrinzha commented 9 years ago

@smurfy. FlashTool1.2 does not start on my Win7 machine too. It requires "windows plugin". Did you change QT version?

smurfy commented 9 years ago

@mstrinzha, yes i upgraded to 5.3

could you try http://smurfy.de/files/flashtool1_1r2b.zip ? i replaced the qwindows.dll with the 5.3 one. I have windows 8.1 and everything works, probably because i have qt in my path. (i have 3 different qt creators and qt sdk's for different projects)

mstrinzha commented 9 years ago

It works now.

smurfy commented 9 years ago

Ok, i updated the package on the release page with the fixed one.
