I know there are many posts about this problem (i've read them all).
But i still have a problem with my exe, still cannot be opened.
I've tried to put the qwindows.dll (i tried with 3 different qwindows.dll) in the folder dist with my exe but doesn't change anyhting.
I've tried with libEGL.dll, nothing.
Any suggestions ? Is there a way to avoid having this problem ?
I've had this issue aswell, after a lot of digging I found the following solution:
Copy the following file next to you main .exe:
libEGL.dll
Copy the following file in a folder "platforms" next to you main .exe:
qwindows.dll
Putting the qwindows.dll in the subfolder is the important part I think, hope this helps
Try:
from setuptools import setup
import platform
from glob import glob
from main import __version__, __appname__, __author__, __author_email__
SETUP_DICT = {
'name': __appname__,
'version': __version__,
'description': 'description',
'author': __author__,
'author_email': __author_email__,
'data_files': (

('platforms', glob(r'C:\Python34\Lib\site-packages\PyQt5\plugins\platforms\qwindows.dll')),
('images', ['images\logo.png']),
('images', ['images\shannon.png']),
),
'options': {
'py2exe': {
'bundle_files': 1,
'includes': ['sip', 'PyQt5.QtCore'],
},
}
}
if platform.system() == 'Windows':
import py2exe
SETUP_DICT['windows'] = [{
'script': 'main.py',
'icon_resources': [(0, r'images\logo.ico')]
}]
SETUP_DICT['zipfile'] = None
setup(**SETUP_DICT)
copy the dependency manually is a bad way to do, because py2exe take care of it. With pyqt5, this setup works, BUT if I try in other computer without pyqt install the exe crashes. I migrated to pyqt4 and run in all computers.
For me it was enough to copy qwindows.dll to platforms folder, like #Inktvisje wrote.
And don't repeat my mistake: don't download this dll from Internet! Copy it from your Python libs folder: YourPythonFolder\Lib\site-packages\PyQt5\plugins\platforms.

I have the following directory structure to my python project:
eplusplus/
|
|
----__main__.py
----model/
----exception/
----controller/
----view/
The directories: model, exception, controller and view each one has its
__init__.py. When I run the program at my machine I always use this following command: py -m eplusplus. But when I tried to use py2exe or pytinstaller the the points to: permission denied. For what I found, this is because its a directory I trying to compile, but when I compiled the __main__.py it compiled normally, but when I try to execute it says: Error! No eplusplus module founded!
I have no setup.py file and I don't know how they worked.
After some very intensive research and error and try I succeeded by doing this:
I added an empty __init__.py at the eplusplus folder
Out of the eplusplus folder, I had to write a compilation.py file (the file doesn't necessary must have this) to include all libraries I was using (I will post the file at the end of this answer)
Finally, at the PowerShell, all I have to type was py compilation.py py2exe
Thanks for all that tried to help me!

Platform is Windows 7 64bit using python 2.7 and GTK3+ installed from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pygobjectwin32/files/?source=navbar
The exe is compiled but fails to run, due to this
The following modules appear to be missing
['gi.repository.Gdk', 'gi.repository.Gtk', 'overrides.registry']
How can i properly include these files?
imports in my .py file
from gi.repository import Gtk, Gdk
my setup file
#!/usr/bin/env python
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe, sys
sys.path.append("C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\gnome")
sys.path.append("C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\repository")#tried including these extra dirs
sys.path.append("C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\override")#tried including these extra dirs
sys.path.append("C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\gi") #tried including these extra dirs
setup(
options = {
'py2exe': {
'bundle_files': 1,
#this does not work 'includes': ['Gtk']
}
},
console=["gui.py"],
zipfile=None
)
The executable error when ran:
ImportError: MemoryLoadLibrary failed loading gi\_gi.pyd
Thanks
You need to add "gi" to "packages".
'options': {
'py2exe': {
'packages': 'gi',
}
}
I haven't tested it on 64bit but this is the setup.py I've used to build with cx_freeze, py2exe looks like is not maintained for a long time.
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
import os, site, sys
## Get the site-package folder, not everybody will install
## Python into C:\PythonXX
site_dir = site.getsitepackages()[1]
include_dll_path = os.path.join(site_dir, "gtk")
## Collect the list of missing dll when cx_freeze builds the app
missing_dll = ['libgtk-3-0.dll',
'libgdk-3-0.dll',
'libatk-1.0-0.dll',
'libcairo-gobject-2.dll',
'libgdk_pixbuf-2.0-0.dll',
'libjpeg-8.dll',
'libpango-1.0-0.dll',
'libpangocairo-1.0-0.dll',
'libpangoft2-1.0-0.dll',
'libpangowin32-1.0-0.dll',
'libgnutls-26.dll',
'libgcrypt-11.dll',
'libp11-kit-0.dll'
]
## We also need to add the glade folder, cx_freeze will walk
## into it and copy all the necessary files
glade_folder = 'glade'
## We need to add all the libraries too (for themes, etc..)
gtk_libs = ['etc', 'lib', 'share']
## Create the list of includes as cx_freeze likes
include_files = []
for dll in missing_dll:
include_files.append((os.path.join(include_dll_path, dll), dll))
## Let's add glade folder and files
include_files.append((glade_folder, glade_folder))
## Let's add gtk libraries folders and files
for lib in gtk_libs:
include_files.append((os.path.join(include_dll_path, lib), lib))
base = None
## Lets not open the console while running the app
if sys.platform == "win32":
base = "Win32GUI"
executables = [
Executable("main.py",
base=base
)
]
buildOptions = dict(
compressed = False,
includes = ["gi"],
packages = ["gi"],
include_files = include_files
)
setup(
name = "test_gtk3_app",
author = "Gian Mario Tagliaretti",
version = "1.0",
description = "GTK 3 test",
options = dict(build_exe = buildOptions),
executables = executables
)
Depending on the libraries you have used you might have to add some missing dll, look at the output of cx_freeze.
I've posted the same some time ago on gnome's wiki:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/PyGObject#Building_on_Win32_with_cx_freeze
So this is a question that has been asked many times. And I followed all the things found on the interwebs, however. My icon just isn't appearing, and I'm not getting any sort of error message. The rest of my program functions fine, it's just the darn ugly icon.
Here's my setup.py file, please let me know if/what I'm doing wrong? Sorry if there is a dumb error. :(
import os, os.path, sys
import subprocess
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
import glob
import numpy
sys.argv.append('py2exe')
target = {
'script' : "MY_PROGRAM.py",
'version' : "1.0",
'company_name' : "MY_COMPANY",
'copyright' : "",
'name' : "PROGRAM_NAME",
'dest_base' : "PROGRAM_NAME",
'icon_resources': [(1, "MY_ICON.ico")]
}
opts = {
'py2exe': { 'includes': ['matplotlib.numerix.random_array', 'dbhash',
'anydbm', 'skimage', 'pymorph', 'register'],
'excludes': ['_gtkagg', '_tkagg'],
'dll_excludes': ['libgdk-win32-2.0-0.dll',
'libgobject-2.0-0.dll'],
'bundle_files': 1
}
}
setup(
data_files = [('Images', glob.glob('Images/*.*'))],
windows = [target],
zipfile = None
)
....
For some reason it works now. I used a different website to convert my png file to a .ico, and voila magic.
:( so much struggles
I'm trying to freeze a python 3.2.2 script with cx_freeze 4.2.3. PyQt4 is used by the source script, I'm not sure if that is a potential source of the issue. Python crashes during the build process. Here is the command line output:
C:\Python32\New Folder>python setup.py build
running build
running build_exe
copying C:\Python32\Lib\site-packages\cx_Freeze\bases\Win32GUI.exe -> build\exe.win32-3.2\app.exe
copying C:\WINDOWS\system32\python32.dll -> build\exe.win32-3.2\python32.dll
Python itself crashes in Windows at this point and gives the "send error report" MS dialog:
python.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry
for the inconvenience.
Here is my setup.py file:
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
GUI2Exe_Target_1 = Executable(
script = "script.pyw",
initScript = None,
base = 'Win32GUI',
targetName = "app.exe",
compress = True,
copyDependentFiles = True,
appendScriptToExe = False,
appendScriptToLibrary = False,
icon = "icon.png"
)
excludes = ["pywin", "tcl", "pywin.debugger", "pywin.debugger.dbgcon",
"pywin.dialogs", "pywin.dialogs.list", "win32com.server",
"email"]
includes = ["PyQt4.QtCore","PyQt4.QtGui","win32gui","win32com","win32api","html.parser","sys","threading","datetime","time","urllib.request","re","queue","os"]
packages = []
path = []
setup(
version = "1.0",
description = "myapp",
author = "me",
author_email = "email#email.com",
name = "app",
options = {"build_exe": {"includes": includes,
"excludes": excludes,
"packages": packages,
"path": path
}
},
executables = [GUI2Exe_Target_1]
)
Any ideas on where I'm going wrong?
edit: After some experimentation it appears the icon I am trying to use is causing issues. It will build if I leave out the icon setting.
Apparently cx_freeze wants icons to be in .ico format. If you try to use a .png for an icon the build process will crash. Also, simply renaming the file extension from .png to .ico does not work, you have actually convert the file to ico.
This may have been obvious to some people but the online docs don't go into detail about required formats for icons.
In my main script, lets call this MyScript.py, I have it like this:
import psyco
psyco.full()
And then my setup.py looks like this:
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe, sys, os, glob
sys.argv.append('py2exe')
import psyco #speed up compilation
psyco.full()
def find_data_files(source,target,patterns):
"""Locates the specified data-files and returns the matches
in a data_files compatible format.
source is the root of the source data tree.
Use '' or '.' for current directory.
target is the root of the target data tree.

patterns is a sequence of glob-patterns for the

"""
if glob.has_magic(source) or glob.has_magic(target):
raise ValueError("Magic not allowed in src, target")
ret = {}
for pattern in patterns:
pattern = os.path.join(source,pattern)
for filename in glob.glob(pattern):
if os.path.isfile(filename):
targetpath = os.path.join(target,os.path.relpath(filename,source))
path = os.path.dirname(targetpath)
ret.setdefault(path,[]).append(filename)
return sorted(ret.items())
setup(
name="MyScript",
version="1.0",
description="a script that does something",
author="Keelx",
data_files=find_data_files('.','',[
'gfx/*',
'data/*',
]),
options={'py2exe': {'bundle_files': 1,'optimize': 2}},
windows=[{'script': "MyScript.py"}],
zipfile=None,
)
It creates a 'dist' folder, with the executable, a win9x executable, and the gfx and data folders next to the executable. However, when I run it it points me to a log which reads:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "MyScript.py", line 16, in
File "zipextimporter.pyo", line 82, in load_module
File "psyco__init__.pyo", line 64, in
WindowsError: [Error 3] The system cannot find the path specified: 'C:\Documents and Settings\Keelx\Desktop\MyScriptFolder\dist\MyScript.exe\psyco\_psyco.pyd'
It would seem that the psyco module is not being put into the executable. I've been searching, and I haven't found a working solution to get py2exe to copy psyco over.
And please refrain from posting solutions along the lines of 'don't use py2exe'.
Thank you in advance whomever can help me out here.
Hunting down py2exe errors appears to be an art to me.
That said, I will at least offer something to try.
I py2exe'ed a psyco enabled python script and tossed it in the includes part of the setup.
Thats the only part that looks different between your setup and my old one.
options = {'py2exe': {'packages': [ 'IPython'],
'includes': ["psyco"],
}
}
Also I was never able to enable optimize. It always caused random errors. Best to leave that one off in my experience. I think it was matplotlib that caused those errors.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
