You might find what the problem is by:

• Setting the environment variable QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS to 1 before running your application.
  It will print the plugin loading attempts/successes/failures on the console.

• Using a QImageWriter to get a more explicit error message than with just QImage::save or QPixmap::save :

  QImageWriter writer("/tmp/test.jpg");
  if(!writer.write(pixmap.toImage()))
  {
      qDebug() << writer.errorString();
  }
