I have created a simple program which uses pywin32. I want to deploy it as an executable, so I py2exe'd it. I also didn't want a huge amount of files, so I set bundle_files to 1 (meaning bundle everything together). However, when I attempt running it, I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pshelper.py", line 4, in <module>
File "zipextimporter.pyc", line 82, in load_module
File "win32.pyc", line 8, in <module>
File "zipextimporter.pyc", line 98, in load_module
ImportError: MemoryLoadLibrary failed loading win32ui.pyd
In my setup script, I tried doing packages=["win32ui"] and includes=["win32ui"] as options, but that didn't help. How can I get py2exe to include win32ui.pyd?
I don't have this problem if I don't ask it to bundle the files, so I can do that, for now, but I'd like to know how to get it to work properly.
Are you sure that the problem is that win32ui.pyd is not included? The stack trace isn't exactly the same as noted in the wiki, but check this out: http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/Py2exeAndWin32ui.
The work-around that has worked best so far is to simply re-implement the pywin32 functions using ctypes. That doesn't require another .pyd or .dll file so the issue is obviated.
Do care to try out PyInstaller? I've used it both on Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04 and it worked like magic, even when I compiled to .pyd on Windows.
I've been able to bundle all sorts of applications that I've developed with it.
I have the same problem trying to bundle psutil with py2exe. Here is what I found so far.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "wx_gui.py", line 43, in <module>

File "psutil\_psmswindows.pyc", line 15, in <module>
File "zipextimporter.pyc", line 98, in load_module
ImportError: MemoryLoadLibrary failed loading _psutil_mswindows.pyd
I get this traceback when bundle_files = 3. zipfile may be specified or may be None, I still get the problem.
First, I thought this was a missing dll because of this page:
http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/ProblemsToBeFixed
I've copied all the dlls I found in Python27 into the same directory as the executable and added that directory path to os.environ['path']. That didn't worked.
Then I tried to import my package directly from site-packages.
I've replaced the whole sys.path of my compiled executable with my normal sys.path
sys.path = [r'C:\Python27\Lib\idlelib', ...]
I think the .pyd module got imported but Visual c++ threw me this really ugly error message:
Runtime Error!
Program: {path}.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
I suggest you try to replace the whole sys.path to see if it is working. If it is, you could always make your single executable write the necessary module into a temp directory and add it to your path. If not, I feel like this problem is going to be hard to solve.

my issue is that i've been trying to make an exe file with a .py that I created, but it doesn't work. I executed the converted .exe file from the console to see the log and I got this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "professors.py", line 10, in <module>

importlib.metadata.PackageNotFoundError: docx2pdf
[6940] Failed to execute script professors
I've been reading about the issue and it seems that pyinstaller doesn't recognize the docx2pdf import. I read in a website that I have to add it in a folder called site-packages, but it is supposed to have another folder inside called pyInstaller, which is not there. I also tried adding the folder manually but it still didn't work. I also tried with the --hidden-imports method but im not sure how to exactly use it.
I will have to apply this to other imports that I have also.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
I had a identical issue. I removed lines 7-13 from the docx2pdf module:
try:
# 3.8+
from importlib.metadata import version
except ImportError:
from importlib_metadata import version
__version__ = version(__package__)
and line 119...
print(__version__)
After that, it worked. Modifying the module probably isn't the best solution, and of course I'd recommend backing up the module before modifying it, but I hope it works for you too.
I have a tkinter app that I am compiling to an .exe via py2exe.
In the setup file, I have set it to include lxml, urllib, lxml.html, ast, and math.
When I run python setup.py py2exe in a CMD console, it compiles fine. I then go to the dist folder It has created, and run the .exe file.
When I run the .exe I get this popup window.

I then procede to open the Trader.exe.log file, and the the contents say the following;
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Trader.py", line 1, in <module>

ImportError: cannot import name _elementpath
Included here is a copy of my setup.py file.
Please help me find the problem here. Thanks in advance.
Looks like py2exe doesn't realize it should include the lxml._elementpath module, which is conditionally imported by lxml.etree. You can tell it to include that module explicitly with the includes keyword argument in your setup.py.
setup(
options={'py2exe': {"includes": ["lxml._elementpath"]}}
)
Py2exe has made documentation of this error on this page: http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/WorkingWithVariousPackagesAndModules
They also offer a working solution.
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):

WindowsError: [Error 3] : 'C:\\...\\...\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\_MEI11122\\transliterate\\contrib\\languages/*.*'
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'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.

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. :)
I am creating a medium level application in Python.
Everything works well now, and I am trying to make this a windows executable with py2exe.
The executable is created fine, but when I try to run it, it fails with the following error.
File "zipextimporter.pyo", line 82, in load_module

ImportError: MemoryLoadLibrary failed loading pyAA\_pyAAc.pyd
I am using pyAA in this application. I searched internet, but was unable to get any solution.
I copied msvcp71.dll to windows/system32, but still issue is there.
I had solved it earlier (around 7 months back), but my hard drive crashed and when I try to recreate it, I cannot seem to solve it now. :-(
I would be much obliged if someone could help me out here.
EDIT:
When I use py2exe without bundle files option, it is working perfectly. But when I use bundle file option, it is failing.
I tried without zipfile option, wherein it creates a library.zip alongwith the executable. Again it failed. I did unzip of library.zip using 7-zip, and found that _pyAAc.pyd is there in pyAA folder inside the zip file. So, it looks like some issue with memoryloadlibrary function.
When I tried to unzip using windows unzip function, it failed. I had to use 7-zip to unzip it. Is it a possible clue?
You're missing some DLL's in your build...
First search your hard drive for the file _pyAAC.pyd. Make sure it is included (shipped) in your build.
Then use 'dependency walker' on the .pyd file (in your py2exe compiled version!) to see what it is that is still missing (other DLL's which are causing the MemoryLoadLibrary message for the .pyd file). Make sure these dependencies are also shipped, ...
