Qt Creator “Cannot create file (…) qtcreator.xml” (Mac)

问题

Qt Creator starts up with several error messages saying that: "Cannot create file /Users/[username]/.config/Nokia/qtcreator.xml: Permission denied"

And when I exit: "Cannot create file /Users/[username]/.config/Nokia/toolChains.xml: Permission denied"

The program runs fine, but I guess it won't be able to store any config. Anyone know how to fix this?

回答1:

As has been mentioned in the comments, it looks like the Qt installer adds the configuration directories with root as the owner. To fix this, run:

sudo chown -R `id -un`:staff ~/.config/Nokia/

回答2:

this command works great for me. found it in qtcenter forum

find ~/.config/Nokia -print0 | sudo xargs -0 chown $USER

i use this instead for version 2.6.1 Qt 5

find ~/.config/QtProject -print0 | sudo xargs -0 chown $USER
