Re: [cx-freeze-users] Problems with cxfreeze

[Max B. <bed...@gm...>]

Thanks again Thomas but I'm still in the dark. I've had to switch systems,
my primary pc died last night so I am now running on a windows pc with
Ubuntu in vBox. I tried your instruction and I am still getting the same
result:

In a term window, in the directory where the cx-freeze output is I first
get a permission denied when executing with ./, when using sudo I got a
repeat of the "command not found" response.

This is the first time that I am trying create a distribution version of
python and I am kind of at a loss. Is it possible that something is wrong
in my setup.py?

here is a copy of the one I am using:
QUOTE

from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable


import sys


base = None
if sys.platform == "win32":
    base = "Win32GUI"

setup(
        name = "HomeInv",
        version = "0.1",
        description = "Sample cx_Freeze Tkinter script",
        executables = [Executable("Inventory_menu.py", base = base),
includes = ["Inventory_fuctions","Inventory_user_interface","invlog.py"],
        targetName = "InvHome.py"],

)


Thanks again;
Max
