If you are using a nokia Qt SDK than I think just go to the project and click on the symbian devices on the targets. When you click on the build it will build the .sis file in to your project folder.

What about sisx? How to self-signed my application?

[rahul.kulshreshtha]

I found this
http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/fo...1&d=1273644357
and "Self-Signed Certificate" is already selected in my configuration. But I don't see any "sisx" file in my project directory however there is "sis" file.

Looking at this page on symbian's wiki, it looks like the SIS file is the self-signed file and you don't need a sisx file any more for QT apps? Is my understanding correct?

[Update]
Found another souce where it says, "Qt applications for Symbian devices are distributed in the SIS format, the standard format for Symbian installation packages"

You are right himanshu !!

"SIS" is already self signed. It was written in CREATOR IDE. I did not know that CREATOR does it by default

Yes I think you are correct. Qt creator generate the self signed .sis file which you can use to installed in to your device. selfsigned is enough if you do not need any specific device capability like readdevicedata writedevicedata etc.

Hi.

I came up similar issue.There is some problem with creating sis file with Qt SDK and connecting Symbian Anna based device to Windows XP based PC via USB using Nokia OVI Suite.

1. The device is Nokia C700 , OS for the device is Symbian Anna
2. The PC is on Windows XP

a. When I connect the device in Mass Storage mode then the connection is ok and files could be transfered to device's storage
b. I installed on PC Nokia Ovi Suite version 2.2.1.23 . When I connect the device to PC and activate at the device Nokia Ovi Suite mode I observe next message from the Nokia Ovi Suite wizard : "The device is not in PC Suite USB mode. Nokia Ovi suite could not recognize your device..." .
Does anybody know what is the problem why I can't connect the device to PC in Nokia Ovi Suite mode ?
c. I installed Qt SDK , made update and I don't see yet QtSDK\Symbian\SDKs\ Qt for Symbian Anna.
Also in Qt Creator in build configuration there is no Qt version for Symbian Anna , should it be there?
Should it be installed in that folder after update?
Does anybody know how to build .sis in Qt Creator using Qt SDK for Symbian Anna ?
d.I can't create .sis files using existing build configuration Qt 4.7.3 for Symbian^3( Qt SDK)
qmake finishes succes.
qmake arguments: -r -spec symbian-sbsv2 "CONFIG+=release" ...
Does anybody know what is the problem ?
the built is finished successfully with:

...

...

but .sis file wasn't created.

Does anybody know how to fix solve/resolve this issue so I may create .sis files ?

Thank in advance,

Pavel

Hi Freely,

I am not sure about other points but I think for the point "b" you need to install "Nokia PC Suit". You have installed "Nokia Ovi Suit".
