Generate a custom offline installer

If your organization creates its own offline installer, you can configure the installer to use your On-Prem Qt License Server or Offline Qt License Server instance for license checks instead of the Qt Account based license check. Follow these instructions to ensure the generated offline installer is compatible with your Qt License Server instance.

Get the license information

Ensure you have a list of the license numbers to use with the offline installer:

With On-Prem Qt License Server, verify the license information from your Qt Customer Portal.

Note: On-Prem Qt License Server is available in version 3.3.0 or later.
With Offline Qt License Server, verify the license information from the entitlement.json file in the root folder of the Offline Qt License Server installation directory. For more information, see Compose entitlement.json from multiple licenses.

Generate offline installer

Note: Use Qt Online Installer 4.8.1 or later.

The generated offline installer contains the license ID. By default, the license ID is from the used Qt Account (--email). Override this with --license-id.

To generate the offline installer, enter the following command:

Linux and macOS Windows

qt-unified-linux-x64-4.8.0-online.run create-offline qt.qt5.5158.gcc_64
    --confirm-command
    --auto-answer telemetry-question=Yes,AssociateCommonFiletypes=Yes
    --default-answer
    --accept-licenses
    --root $HOME/MyOfflineInstallerFolder
    --offline-installer-name myOfflineInstallerName
    --license-id <license id>
    --proxy-url <server URL>
    --email <account@email.com>
    --pw <password>

qt-online-installer-windows-x64-4.8.1.exe create-offline qt.qt5.5158.gcc_64
    --confirm-command
    --auto-answer telemetry-question=Yes,AssociateCommonFiletypes=Yes
    --default-answer
    --accept-licenses
    --root C:\Users\<username>\MyOfflineInstallerFolder
    --offline-installer-name myOfflineInstallerName
    --license-id <license id>
    --proxy-url <server URL>
    --email <account@email.com>
    --pw <password>

For the component names, see Component names for installation.

Use offline installer

To use the generated offline installer, enter the following command:

Linux and macOS Windows

$HOME/<installer name>/offlineInstaller.run install qt.qt5.5158.gcc_64
    --confirm-command
    --auto-answer telemetry-question=Yes,AssociateCommonFiletypes=Yes
    --default-answer
    --accept-licenses
    --root $HOME/InstallationDestinationPath
    --license-id <license id>

C:\Users\<username>\<installer name>\offlineInstaller\offlineInstaller.exe install qt.qt5.5158.gcc_64
    --confirm-command
    --auto-answer telemetry-question=Yes,AssociateCommonFiletypes=Yes
    --default-answer
    --accept-licenses
    --root C:\Users\<username>\InstallationDestinationPath
    --license-id <license id>

Note: As the end-user of the offline installer, you can override the license IDs from Qt Account by using the --license-id option. Use this if the license ID hosted by Qt License Server has changed.
