Python Playsound not playing any sound when compiled into an .exe file

I'm trying to create a digital soundboard that can play object-defined sounds using tkinter and the playsound module. When I'm testing it via VS code, it works without any problems. But after I compile it into an exe, the app works but there's no sound playing.
I tried changing my compilation mode from '--onefile' to '--onedir' in pyinstaller but it didn't work. I also place the sound files into the folder directory of the executable file, but to no avail.
Could there be something wrong with my code?
my code:
import tkinter
from tkinter import *
from PIL import ImageTk, Image
from playsound import playsound
win = Tk()
win.geometry('500x500')
win.maxsize(500,500)
win.title('Alarm Button')
def alarm():
playsound(r'Announcement.mp3')
btn_image = PhotoImage(file='BUTTON.png')
comp_logo = PhotoImage(file='aaaa.png')
Logo = Label(win, image = comp_logo).place(x=390, y=470)
Press_me = Button(win, image=btn_image, command=alarm, borderwidth = 0)
Press_me.place(x=45, y=15)
def handler(e):
alarm()
win.bind('<Return>', handler)
win.mainloop()

I tried it and it still works, maybe it's because of pyinstaller? Or you can try using auto-py-to-exe since it works for me and also easier to use: https://pypi.org/project/auto-py-to-exe/
Make sure that you use playsound 1.2.2 because it's more stable than the 1.3.0 version. You can do it by using:
pip uninstall playsound
Then:
pip install playsound==1.2.2
Also I see that you import tkinter 2 times? You should delete
import tkinter

Apache 2 run '*.py' by python 2

I have a error with import some libraries in my python script. This made for python 3 and good work in Terminal. But when I try to start this script by web server (Apache 2) I have error with "cannot import name 'ImageTk'". I think Apache start this script by python 2, but wrote to start by python 3. Could you help me?
Here code:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import json
import cgi
import cgitb
import os
from PIL import Image, ImageTk
cgitb.enable()
print('Content-type: application/json\n\n')
res = json.dumps({'age': 0, 'pol': '0', 'status': 0})
print(res)
Here error from log:
ImportError: cannot import name 'ImageTk'

According to the PIL official website, the module is only for Python 2.X.
Also according to the effbot website on the ImageTk module:
Note: If you’re using a prebuilt version of PIL, you might need to install additional packages to be able to use the ImageTk module. For example, on Ubuntu, you need both python-imaging and python-imaging-tk.
Hope this helps you.

Does PyQt5/pyqt4 already supports QtVirtualKeyboard with Handwriting Recognition?

I'm working on a desktop application using pyqt5, and I want to use a Virtual Keyboard with Handwriting Recognition. I saw that Qt, QtVirtualKeyboard already support it.
Here's a link!
I got the C++ Qt example code running on QtCreator.
But using python3.5 and PyQt5 it gives this message:
module "QtQuick.VirtualKeyboard" is not installed
import QtQuick.VirtualKeyboard 2.1
How should I go on from here?
Does PyQt5 comes with VirtualKeyboard module? if no How to install it on PyQt5?

for qt desinger you can add only this line on your .py file.
os.environ["QT_IM_MODULE"] = "qtvirtualkeyboard"
but If you want use QML with qtvirtualkeyboard;
There is no virtualkeyboard plugin in pyqt5.8, you must be use qt's paths.
For a example, basic steps for pyqt5, qt5.8 and qtvirtualkeyboard installiation on ubuntu:
1.step install qt5.8 with qtvirtualkeyboard
wget
http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.8/5.8.0/qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.8.0.run
chmod +x qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.8.0.run
./qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.8.0.run
2.step
apt-get install python3 python3-pip
pip3 install pyqt5
3.step
set environmental variables your qt paths on your python code.
import sys, os
os.environ["QT_DIR"] = "/opt/Qt5.8.0/5.8/gcc_64"
os.environ["QT_QPA_PLATFORM_PLUGIN_PATH"] = "/opt/Qt5.8.0/5.8/gcc_64/plugins/platforms"
os.environ["QT_PLUGIN_PATH"] = "/opt/Qt5.8.0/5.8/gcc_64/plugins"
os.environ["QML_IMPORT_PATH"] = "/opt/Qt5.8.0/5.8/gcc_64/qml"
os.environ["QML2_IMPORT_PATH"] = "/opt/Qt5.8.0/5.8/gcc_64/qml"
os.environ["QT_IM_MODULE"] = "qtvirtualkeyboard"
#print(os.environ)
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
from PyQt5 import QtCore
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5.QtQuick import *
class keyboardapp(object):
def __init__(self):
self.view = QQuickView()
self.view.setObjectName("View")
#self.view.setFlags(Qt.FramelessWindowHint)
self.view.setSource(QUrl("main.qml"))
self.view.setResizeMode(QQuickView.SizeRootObjectToView)
#self.Screen = self.view.rootObject()
#print("Screen(Root) = " + str(self.Screen))
self.view.show()
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
test = keyboardapp()
sys.exit(app.exec_())

I been stuck with this too, and i am new to Qt
After some researching, and digging in source code, found the solution
You dont need to import it to use it since its a module it will implement itself to every qt input
Well you dont need to install it on PyQt5 but on Qt5 if it is not already come with your Qt package, if you use archlinux you can install it with pacman
pacman -S qt5-virtualkeyboard
If you cannot find it in you os repositories try to build it here is documantation
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtvirtualkeyboard-index.html
Then to use it in your pyqt application, set environmental variable QT_IM_MODULE to "qtvirtualkeyboard" either from your bash or inside the top your script like
import os
os.environ["QT_IM_MODULE"] = "qtvirtualkeyboard"

Windows Python 2.7 wxwidgets and 'gizmos'

Can anyone give me precise instructions on how to access the wx 'gizmos' module?
import wx.gizmos
ImportError: No module named gizmos
The code in question has this:
import wx
import string
import wx.gizmos
from wx.lib.mixins import treemixin
import Descriptor
'pip list' reports
wxPython-Phoenix (3.0.3.dev1830+0b5f910)
Do I have the right package installed? I should add that these files are present:
\python27\Lib\wxpython\wx-3.0-msw\wx\gizmos.py
\python27\Lib\wxpython\wx-3.0-msw\wx\_gizmos.pyd
[edit] For clarification, this seems to be OK so I'm reasonably sure the WX module is installed correctly.
import wx
import copy
# had to add .agw to get this to load
import wx.lib.agw.customtreectrl as CT
import DescriptorDetailsPanel
TAIA

Congrats, you have two installs of wx. You can use pkg_resources to get the one you want. Put the following at the top of the script:
__requires__ = ["wx >= 3.0"]
import pkg_resources
This will tell pkg_resources to set things up so that a version of wx of at least 3.0 will be available if you import wx rather than the default 2.x.

You can try to remove wxpython from pip install and reinstall wxpython from this site:
https://www.wxpython.org/download.php
It worked for me!

Python error when importing image_to_string from tesseract

I recently used tesseract OCR with python and I kept getting an error when I was trying to import image_to_string from tesseract.
Code causing the problem:
# Perform OCR using tesseract-ocr library
from tesseract import image_to_string
image = Image.open('input-NEAREST.tif')
print image_to_string(image)
Error caused by above code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
file "./captcha.py", line 52, in <module>
from tesseract import image_to_string
ImportError: cannot import name image_to_string
I've verified that the tesseract module is installed:
digital_alchemy#roaming-gnome /home $ pydoc modules | grep 'tesseract'
Hdf5StubImagePlugin _tesseract gzip sipconfig
ORBit cairo mako tesseract
I believe that I've grabbed all the required packages but unfortunately I'm just stuck at this point. It appears that the function is not in the module.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Another possibility that seems to have worked for me is to modify pytesseract so that instead of import Image it has from PIL import Image
Code that works in PyCharm after modifying pytesseract:
from pytesseract import image_to_string
from PIL import Image
im = Image.open(r'C:\Users\<user>\Downloads\dashboard-test.jpeg')
print(im)
print(image_to_string(im))
Pytesseract I installed via the package management built into PyCharm

Is your syntax correct for the module you have installed? That image_to_string functions looks like it is from PyTesser per the usage example on this page:
https://code.google.com/p/pytesser/
Your import looks like it is for python-tesseract which has a more complicated usage example listed:
https://code.google.com/p/python-tesseract/

For windows followed below steps
pip3 install pytesseract
pip3 install pillow
Installation of tessaract-ocr is also required
https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki
otherwise you will get an error Tessract is not on path
Python code
from PIL import Image
from pytesseract import image_to_string
print ( image_to_string(Image.open('test.tif'),lang='eng') )

what works for me:
after I install the pytesseract form tesseract-ocr-setup-3.05.02-20180621.exe
I add the line
pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract.exe"
and use the code form the above this is all the code:
import pytesseract
from PIL import Image
pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract.exe"
im=Image.open("C:\\Users\\<user>\\Desktop\\ro\\capt.png")
print(pytesseract.image_to_string(im,lang='eng'))
I am using windows 10 with PyCharm Community Edition 2018.2.3 x64
