I've been using cxFreeze to build my Python code for some time and had no issue, until today. I'm not sure the problem comes from cxFreeze, though. Although there are some RuntimeError exceptions on the web, they don't exactly match what I obtain.

RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object
No idea what is creating the bug. I didn't add in any new module and just fixed some errors in my program. I have the most recent version of pip and setuptools. Does anyone know what this error mean?
If you want to see the code, it's here: https://github.com/vlegoff/cocomud/blob/master/src/setup.py
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
It turned out all the fuss was because of the parse module (pypi.python.org/pypi/parse), although it's not included in the project I was trying to freeze. I removed it with pip uninstall and it worked when I tried to freeze my project. No idea why, I did it because I remember having installed two new packages to try them out.
This looks strange. I believe it could be related to a bug in cx_freeze.
If you read the people referred by this link:
https://bitbucket.org/anthony_tuininga/cx_freeze/issues/184/importing-pyqtgraph-causes-recursion-limit
They seem to have a problem with pyqtgraph, but also with urllib, that you are using in your project (and the bug doesn't seems fixed yet). So I suggest to exclude this from your project and to check if this works better. Maybe, you could also try another version of cx_freeze, or specifying the imported libraries in another way, for instance, by linking modules manually using this syntax:
Buildoptions=dict(
compressed=True,
includes=["moduletoinclude"],
path=sys.path + ["Lib"]
)
Have a nice day

pwd is a built-in module(come with python installation) for unix like only os - you can't use it on windows, try winpwd
On a server, for disk optimization, we do not install a C compiler,
and here is the problem :
I want to install 'spur' python package with buildout 2.3.1,
spur is using pycrypto which requires a C compiler.
To avoid compilation, I installed on the server (Suse 11SP2) the rpm python-pycrypto (python-pycrypto-2.6-31.7.x86_64.rpm). I can check with 'pip freeze' that pycrypto is installed :
pip freeze
lxml==2.1.2
mod-python==3.3.1
Numeric==24.2
numpy==1.3.0
pycrypto==2.6
pywbem==0.7.0
PyXML==0.8.4
Nevertheless, when I start buildout, it still tries to build pycrypto with a C compiler that does not exist.
So I added include-site-packages = true and allowed-eggs-from-site-packages = pycrypto in buildout.cfg, but they are not taken in account.
I also tried to do a :
python bootstrap.py --allow-site-packages
bin/buildout
but that did not help too.
What can I do to avoid buildout compile a package that is already compiled and installed from rpm ?
Here is the buildout.cfg
[buildout]
newest = false
extensions = gp.vcsdevelop
develop-dir = src
parts = eggs tests wsgi
include-site-packages = true
allowed-eggs-from-site-packages = pycrypto
eggs =

I found a workaround :
I just created a egg-link file into develop-eggs dir :

/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages
I got no evidence that zc.buildout > 1.7.1 supports include-site-packages, nor allowed-eggs-from-site-packages.
On my local machine I searched for the mentioned features in the following versions of zc.buildout:
zc.buildout-1.4.4-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-1.6.3-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-1.7.1-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.0.0-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.0.1-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.1.0-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.2.0-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.2.1-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.2.3-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.2.4-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.2.5-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.3.0-py2.7.egg
zc.buildout-2.3.1-py2.7.egg
Check Readme on https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout/1.7.1. The features were introduced somewhere around zc.buildout 1.5.0. The last release, which supports those features is 1.7.1.
They made some kind of relaunch with zc.buildout 2.0.0...
Quote from the changlog, version 2.0.0:
This is a backward incompatible release of buildout that attempts to correct mistakes made in buildout 1.
Buildout no-longer tries to provide full or partial isolation from system Python installations. If you want isolation, use buildout with virtualenv, or use a clean build of Python to begin with.
In your case this means, if you want to use those features you need to use zc.buildout 1.7.1.
It's also important, that it's not possible to use both options at the same time. Use allowed-eggs-from-site-packages (only specific packages), or include-site-packages.
I assume you're using the boostrap.py version 1: http://downloads.buildout.org/1/bootstrap.py
This version does not support the ´--allow-site-packages´ options, since it was intended to use with zc.buildout 1.x, which handles this case (or at least 1.5.x).
Well, after this short trip in buildout history, I guess the following two points will solve your problem:
Be sure you're using boostrap.py 2: https://bootstrap.pypa.io/bootstrap-buildout.py. Only this version supports the --allow-site-packages option.
Make sure you are using a suitable zc.buildout version for yout boostrap.py verson.
Then python bootstrap.py --allow-site-packages works as expected.
My package depends on BeautifulSoup. If I install my package in a fresh virtualenv via python setup.py develop, I get the following error. If I execute python setup.py develop a second time, everything seems to work fine. I have no idea, what's happening. How to fix it to get a reproducable setup?

This error has to do with a discrepancy between the versions of distutils and setuptools installed on your machine. Upgrading setuptools to the current version is likely to resolve the issue.
EDIT: This solution no longer works for me (and apparently never worked for Jens -- see comment below). What now works for me is to import setuptools before anything else in whatever script I'm calling that leads to this error.
This error is discussed in many issues on GitHub, in many packages, but I find this discussion to be the most informative.
The only way I was able to solve it was to follow the https://bugs.python.org/file37554/distutils_accomodate_distribution_ducktypes.patch
So - I removed /usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/cmd.py and /usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/cmd.pyc ( ran a python setup.py develop - just to make sure it fails and is not using the pyc from somewhere else ) and then recreated /usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/cmd.py - only this time with the changes as shown in the patch. Then when I used python setup.py again - it worked..
install dnspython. pip install dnspython. Or check if u have older version of dnspython and upgrade
Try using pip for installing your package
$ pip install -e path/to/your/Project
See http://pip.readthedocs.org/en/latest/reference/pip_install.html#editable-installs for more information.
When I encountered this, it appeared at first glance that it was complaining that Distribution() didn't produce a Distribution instance, but that was only partly true.
setuptools provides its own Distribution, and monkeypatches it into distutils. That works in most cases, but will fail if you get a reference to Distribution before setuptools has been imported and done its magic.
The top of the script read:
from distutils.dist import Distribution
and then later we were importing and using various parts of setuptools.
The solution in my case was to do a late import in the function that uses it so Distribution was obtained after setuptools was loaded.
I run the following command in terminal sudo python2.6 setup.py install and after some output I get the below error.

zipimport.ZipImportError: bad local file header in /opt/python2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/businesscommon-5.63-py2.6.egg
I ran the command unzip -t /opt/python2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/businesscommon-5.63-py2.6.egg to see if the EGG file is a valid ZIP file and it returned 'No errors detected'.
I've done some research on zipimport.ZipImportError but can't seem to figure how really to debug or fix it. I don't have much experience with Python so any help or advice would be appreciated.
Looks like all I needed to do was run sudo python2.5 setup.py install instead of sudo python2.6 setup.py install
Notice that I was oringally using python2.6 instead of python2.5.
