py2exe-users — Discussion of the py2exe package

Re: [Py2exe-users] Question

[Massa, H. A. <ch...@gh...>]

Hi,

py2exe is used to bundle:

- a python interpreter
- all the libraries / packages
- all the Python code you wrote for a project

into one directory / file.

Essentially: all the components used by your python project are ZIPped into
one
big file (or directory). The Python files were compiled (.pyc created) to
do this.

ALL DEPENDENCIES have to be installed on the system you run py2exe on!

py2exe (or, more exactly, setuptools, which py2exe extends) tries its best
to find all dependencies.

Sometimes, it fails, and the link you quoted
https://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/WorkingWithVariousPackagesAndModules
explains how to work around some of those failures.

One example: SOME packages dynamically try to import plugins (Python Image
Library, PIL, or its fork, PILLOW do this: there may be modules for PNG,
JPEG, TIFF; and PIL scans the directory for those modules)

"Scanning a directory for modules" is not something that is doable 1:1 if
everything is zipped into one system. Especially: py2exe most likely does
NOT package all the modules in the directory, as they are not "really"
referenced by the project. (The reference of those modules is only created
on runtime of the program)

does this help?

Cheers

Harald

[Py2exe-users] Question

[Shiki S. <ima...@gm...>]

Hey there. I hope you're having a nice day. :)

I have a general question. I'm new to those stuff so don't blame me if I'm
being dumb.

py2exe is used to run python files on PC's without python, and I took a
look at this page:
https://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/WorkingWithVariousPackagesAndModules but I
still don't understand. How can I also make it so I can grab packages from
pip that are required for my code to run? I have been thinking that
packages are basically just files, and I can include them into the files of
my project as well, but is that possible? And if so, how?

Thanks in advance. :)

[Py2exe-users] _bz2 initialization error

[Will D. <wi...@de...>]

Good morning py2exe users,

 I appear to be getting an odd issue related to bz2 (a builtin python module) that is preventing my compiled file from running. The program appears work if I don’t bundle files, but I want to have a single .exe file. Here is the traceback:

[Py2exe-users] Dynamic imports with py2exe

[Jeffrey B. <jef...@gm...>]

you can try using includes option.
setup(
 options = {
    “py2exe”: {
        “includes”: [“sip”, “cffi”],
    }
 }
)

you can also use py2exe.mf.AddPackagePath

Thanks,
Jeff

py2exe tries to freeze everything, in as few files as possible.

That is actively static.

Which does not fit well with "dynamic" anything.


My solution: http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/py2exeAndPIL

"Make it dumb". Do not rely on any dynamic directory scanning or dynamic
import.
Remove that dynamic import code, and statically import the modules you need.

[Py2exe-users] Dynamic imports with py2exe

[Will D. <wi...@de...>]

Good afternoon py2exe mailing list,

 I’ve had my first experience using py2exe today, but I appear to be hitting some snags with dynamic imports (I have gone through the wiki to no avail). 

 The project uses a plugins folder containing subfolders with .py files:

 application.py
 Plugins\
 | — __init__.py
 | — Plugin1\
 | — — __run__.py
 | — Plugin2\
 | — — __run__.py

 The project uses importlib.import_module to dynamically import the entry points in __run__.py like:

 Importlib.import_module(‘application.plugins.{}.__run__’.format(plugin))

 It does not appear to be importing correctly this way, however. Is there a workaround that you know of?

Fair winds and following seas,
Will

Re: [Py2exe-users] py2exe modifies python27.dll? also different output on different machines

[Mark H. <ski...@gm...>]

I think I recall (but I'm not really sure tbh) that py2exe will update 
the DLL in an attempt to make sure any installed Python's don't get used 
when importing modules - ie, so that 
"HKLM\Software\Python\PythonCore\x.y" isn't used. You should try 
grepping for UpdateResource in py2exe's sources.

HTH,

Mark

cannot explain anything about the py2exe signature in python27.dll. But the
"API-MS-Win-Core..." and the bcrypt.dll and crypt32.dll problem I have
experienced intensely.

So, in my setup-scripts the following things are pushed into dll_excludes:


"dll_excludes": ["tk84.dll", "tcl84.dll", "_tkinter.pyd", "_imagingtk.pyd",
"w9xpopen.exe", 'msvcr71.dll',  'win32ui.pyd',
                                           "MSVCP90.dll",
                                           # starting with Windows 7
                                           "kernelbase.dll", "mpr.dll",
"powrprof.dll", "secur32.dll",
                                           "shfolder.dll",

 "API-MS-Win-Core-LocalRegistry-L1-1-0.dll",

 "API-MS-Win-Core-ProcessThreads-L1-1-0.dll",

 "API-MS-Win-Security-Base-L1-1-0.dll",
                                           # starting with Windows 10
                                           "CRYPT32.dll",
                                           "bcrypt.dll",
]

Beginning only valid as I do not want to use tkinter.
The things starting at "windows 7" - if I do not exclude those dll, the
distribution does not work.

So, my recommendation: Try to exclude those dlls.

(and, by chance, are your builds on different windows versions?)

Cheers

Harald

[Py2exe-users] py2exe modifies python27.dll? also different output on different machines

[Jeffrey B. <jef...@gm...>]

I have two machines using py2exe to build an executable distribution. Each
machine produces a slightly different build, when I desire them to be
identical. The build from the 1st machine works on every computer that I
have moved it to. The build from the second machine works on some machines,
but fails on others. It fails to load QtCore.dll, and QtCore.dll is present
in the distribution.

I have tried to examining python -m pip list to make sure both machines
have the same packages.
py2exe is version 0.6.9
python is version 2.7.13

But now I get to the weird part, the main part of my question.
On Machine 1 the one who's build works everywhere.
   c:\python27\python27.dll and
   d:\dist\python27.dll
have different md5sums.
Upon diffing these I see that d:\dist\python27.dll has the characters
py2exe embedded within it and the one in c:\python27\python27.dll does not
have these characters.

I have renamed all other instances of python27.dll on my computer, so we
can just focus on these two.

On the second computer, the one that works in only some places, the
python27.dll match.
c:\python27\python27.dll exactly matches c:\dist\python27.dll and do not
have the characters py2exe embedded.
Here the drive letters are the same. Above they were c: and d:

Besides py2exe seemingly embedding its signature into python27.dll, here
are a few other oddities.
The good build copies API-MS-Win-Core-LocalRegistry-L1-1-0.dll. I don't
think it should do this.
The bad version does not copy this file.
The bad version copies bcrypt.dll and crypt32.dll, the good version does
not.
The produced executables also do not match.
I have compressed:0, optimize: 0

So, why does py2exe modifiy python27.dll sometimes?
I'm not sure how to debug this.
I think I'm starting with the same setup on both machines.
Each machine has some packages that the other one does not though.
But the common packages all match version number.

Hi

I am trying to convert a python program to exe. I already tested the
program, it works well but when I convert it to exe I have a problem when
running openOPC functions.

there is no error when a run "import OpenOPC"
but it fails just when I try to start a client "opc = OpenOPC.client()"
everything else in the program seems to work fine.

I would appreciate your help or some orientation to solve this problem.

Thank you

Re: [Py2exe-users] Py2exe question

[Jimmy R. <ji...@re...>]

Hi Mark,

Welcome to the py2exe mailing list!

There is no "online form" associated with py2exe. Maybe you are referring
to http://py to exe.com? I added the spaces as I don't want to encourage
people to go there without thinking more deeply about the risks. That site
has no direct connection with py2exe (http://py2exe.org), which is the
subject of this list. In fact, that page says it uses PyInstaller (
http://www.pyinstaller.org), which does something similar to py2exe. Given
there is no connection, you won't find much expertise on this list. I'd be
surprised if that site has any direct affiliation with PyInstaller either
given that it's using a name so similar to py2exe.

Also, please think carefully about the risks involved in generating your
EXEs with an online tool. I'd be especially wary of using an online tool
that is offered over a non-TLS connection and makes no attempt to indicate
who is behind it. You have no visibility into what it's doing, so it's very
difficult to understand what is in the resulting EXE in addition to (or
instead of) your own code. You may be putting users of the resulting EXE at
risk. It's possible this is nothing more than an attempt to distribute
malware, surreptitious cryptocurrency miners, etc.

There are open source tools that have been around for more than a decade
(py2exe, PyInstaller, and cx_freeze) that you can use. They are slightly
harder to use, but you can look at exactly what they are doing (many people
have). And you can automate things so that it's easy to produce future
versions of your EXE. The authors of these tools have also openly attached
their reputation to them.

If you choose to use py2exe itself, then you will likely get support from
people here. There is a tutorial to help get you started at
http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/Tutorial

Good luck!

Jimmy

[Py2exe-users] Python34 PyQt5 MVC and py2exe - zipextimporter.py", line 116, in load_module.. can't find module

[<my....@gm...>]

Following my topic, I'm looking help here on this list.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44606422/python34-pyqt5-mvc-and-py2exe-zipextimporter-py-line-116-in-load-module-c


  1.. I have Python34 MVC app that working corect in typical python execution as script that including all modules from MVC for PyQt5. https://sourceforge.net/projects/pyqt/files/PyQt5/PyQt-5.5.1/

  2.. When I using py2exe (no any errors - Copy DLL to dst), then app.exe is created,but not executed coz exist error:

  Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.pyw", line 6, in <module> File "E:Python34\lib\site-packages\zipextimporter.py", line 116, in load_module raise zipimport.ZipImportError("can't find module %s" % fullname) zipimport.ZipImportError: can't find module Controller.MainController

There is thousend queries by google with similar error logs, but not any ansewer how to resolve by own, with full understandig of this issue (eg debug). The app looks like:

import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QMessageBox
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui
from Model.MainModel import MainModelClass
from Controller.MainController import MainControllerClass

def main():
    app = QApplication( sys.argv )
    model = MainModelClass()
    controller = MainControllerClass(model)

    app.exec_()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.exit(main())
3.. What I discover time ago and was suprised, that py2exe expect init.py on each folder where is module for MVC (that is not required on pure python execution). In other way if not init then bug as in point 2 is permament (I have other version of app that just not need more libs eg. QDialog in MainView and working ok, but if init.py is deleted from folder Contoroller where is MainContoroller.py then as in point 2 if init.py exist then compiled .exe is ok and working as expect. I'm sure that init.py is everywhere.

  4.. How to prevent this? How to discover the point in code for this .exe from py2exe as problem or extort module Controller.MainController?

  5.. Any similar issues with py2exe and solutions to repair?

  6.. It's work in pure python and pyinstaler compiller coretly. But I'm not happy from pyinstaler in case that in some of my aps have many .pyd files, which can't be inside .exe and this case creating chaos in folder app. as _MEI or other, exist additional includes, plugins, etc.. Soo function of use py2exe is comfy, specialy if I operate on some universal framework for app, eg. usefull staff as esky,etc.

And this post is for reach more knoweledge about py2exe or some problems. Maybe I'm too long this problem and missed something very simply or not doing this right way (checking source of problem - eg. dependecy walker?).

Hi,

[Sakurai Y. <You...@ys...>]

Hello Martin,

Following command gives you the same information as -VV in case of 2.7 or just run Python in interactive mode like this.

Hi Sakurai,


python -VV

There is no MSC version after typed this command.

Hello,

I'm just one of py2exe users but I'd be able to give a clue.

At first, check out what compiler built your Python by following command.

python -VV

Then, you'll find version (MSC v. nnnn) and architecture (32 bit or 64 bit) of compiler in command's output.

Next, go to http://stackoverflow.com/a/2676904 and identify what version of VC++ needs to be installed.

After installing correct version and architecture of vcredist, your application will be probably able to start without such error.

Hi,

The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is in
correct. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.e
