[Visualpython-users] Visual Python & py2exe compile error.

[Derek L. <dl...@ma...>]

When I compile my code to a executable using py2exe  the vtest.exe is
created successfully but I get the following error when I run the
compiled file:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "vtest.py", line 1, in <module>
  File "visual\__init__.pyc", line 66, in <module>
  File "visual\ui.pyc", line 3, in <module>
  File "visual\materials.pyc", line 151, in <module>
  File "visual\materials.pyc", line 129, in loadTGA
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: "C:\\Documents and
Settings\\D-man\\Desktop\\Research\\'09\\Forign
Study\\Python\\CopyforComp\\dist\\vtest.exe\\visual/turbulence3.tga"

I get the same error with several different vpython scripts, as an example:

""" Start vtest.py """
from visual import *

box(pos=(0,0,0), size=(1,1,1))
""" End vtest.py """

""" Start mysetup.py """
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe

setup(
console = ["stars.py"],
)
""" End mysetup.py """

(from the command line)
>python mysetup.py py2exe

Has anyone encountered this before? Any idea on what I'm doing wrong?
