Ok, so I'm trying to make a little python script into an exe file, and I'm using pyinstaller. (My command I'm using is pyinstaller.exe --windowed --icon=pics\icon.ico -F --onefile main.py) I've figured out how to use pyinstaller, and it's worked before when I was making earlier versions of this python program. Now it isn't working, and I don't know why. It's saying that a file that it's trying to make already exists, except it doesn't (I've checked), and it's giving me this error:
765 INFO: PyInstaller: 3.4

(It's done this before, but that time, the file I was trying to make DID exist already. I deleted the file, tried again, and it all worked fine.)
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
I just figured it out. I don't know what changed, but it works just fine now. I just waited a week and came back to it. I guess God just sent a miracle!

I have been working on a program that shows the weather using python and thought I would try setting it up as an exe for easy installation on other devices. However every time I put in a location to search for using the exe GUI, I get this in the terminal window that opens with the program window:
Exception in Tkinter callback
Traceback (most recent call last):

OSError: Could not find a suitable TLS CA certificate bundle, invalid path: C:\Users\pcusername\AppData\Local\Temp\_MEI118802\certifi\cacert.pem
I have been trying to figure out what the problem is, but haven't been able to find anything to get it working. If anyone can help figure this out I would appreciate it. Also, let me know if any more context/code is needed or if I did anything wrong regarding the post, as it is my first time having to post on stack overflow.
Note, this is using:
windows 11,
python 3.9,
pycharm 2021.2.2,
pyinstaller for exe creation
Ok ended up figuring it out:
This method does work: (The top answer) python requests can't find a folder with a certificate when converted to .exe
I was however missing the cacert.pem file still, which gave the error when I tried this fix initially. What ended up working is finding the cacert.pem in the mypycharmproject\venv\Lib\site-packages\certifi folder and then copying it to the dist folder where the exe is located.
Thank you for your help everyone!
I have installed exiftool (https://smarnach.github.io/pyexiftool/) and I am able to import the library, but I get the following error when trying to run the test data just to see if it works.

I also did run the setup code that is in the exiftool folder and still no luck. I think it might be a library issue or path or the (init.py) file, but I've tried several ways and so I'm here to ask if anyone else has a solution or ideas for me to try and fix it.
I'm running Python 3.6.6 and have tried other versions.
(I can run exiftool in command line, but I have encoded BASE64 images that exiftool doesnt work in command line to fully decode.)
Thank you StarGeek! The problem was that I didn't have the exiftool command tool (the separate application of exiftool) in the right PATH env variable. Once I added the application to the PATH env variables i got it to work. Also in the python exiftool code at line 70 it says that you have to have it in the path or direct it to the executable, that I had missed. Thanks again!
I'm using module transliterate.py from standard translit python libraries.
When I compile my GUI application, it raises the next error.
Traceback (most recent call last):

How I understand, I have to place
that lib somewhere within my application. But I just compile one .exe file, so wouldn't like to keep yet one file with my exe.
BTW, app is ran under Win 7 / 32bit.
Thanks.
That may be one of those libraries that you have to include explicitly. I know I had to do that from time to time with py2exe. See the following docs for more information:
http://pythonhosted.org/PyInstaller/#options-for-finding-imported-modules-and-libraries
I was following the documentation of pgs4a, where in the build part I got a WindowsError [Error 2].

As obvious,
I am using Windows 7, and have:
Python 2.7.3
JDK
Android Emulator
Device drivers for my Sony Tipo.
Please help!
By the way,
I would prefer to get this running on my phone first. I am thinking of moving to the emulator later(after the tutorial is completed).
Is this question more suitable for https://android.stackexchange.com/?
I am not sure if this is still an issue for you, but I ran into the similar issue recently and managed to solve it so I will just leave a note here.
If anyone gets this kind of error, go to pgs4a folder and android-sdk folder. There, run SDK Manager.exe file. You will see a list of Tools and different android versions. Try to find the version that you are working on and install everything that is 'uninstalled'.
I managed to solve the above issue by installing everything under my current AND previous Android versions. Hope this will help anyone who ran into the same issue!
rename the folder android-sdk-windows to android-sdk
I've never used py2exe before. I installed the package, created a setup.py, ran it and it seemed to work without any obvious errors. I went into the dist folder it created and tried to run the exe but I'm getting this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "rl2.py", line 3, in <module>

File "ctypes\__init__.pyc", line 353, in __init__
WindowsError: [Error 126] The specified module could not be found
How can I solve this?
What exact commands did you use to get this output?
I recommend using PyInstaller.
You can build an EXE with PyInstaller using this command:
"python pyinstaller.py -y -w -F [PATH\TO\SCRIPT.py] -n [PROJECT_NAME]"
-y: answer yes to every question
-w: windowed (does not show commandline when running)
-F: Compile into one EXE instead of a directory with .dll files
-n: assign project name
Hope I helped
You probably need to manually specify ctypes in the packages section of your setup.py.
See here
I had same issue today. HEre is the solution will work 100%
The meaning of error is the imported dll file in your code is misssng in created dist folder. so you have to copy and paste dll file in dist folder, and it will work.
I used logimove.dll file and same issue. so i put logimove.dll file in dist file and it works. :)
