Hi All: I've just recently downloaded and installed the r272 snapshot and find that I'm seeing the dreaded 'XXX.exe has encountered an error and needs to close' error when trying to run my executable. I feel honour-bound to point out that programming for a Windows environment is a new experience for me, having been working almost exclusively on Linux/UNIX up to now. :-)
For completeness, I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2, fully patched up to date, with Python 2.4.2 and pyWin32 build 208 also installed. The username I use to log on to XP has local admin privileges (yeah, I know...!) on the machine. I'm taking care to always ensure that I completely delete the 'dist' and 'build' folders before running Build.py each time. The application that I'm building is a reasonably complex program using wxPython-2.6 and PythonCard-0.8.1, but which builds correctly using py2exe and has been fairly comprehensively tested to run correctly from a DOS command line in both raw python and py2exe compiled form. There's nothing of any great importance in the warnings file produced by the build process, based on my prior experience of using McMillan Installer, so I'm really hoping for some guidance from the list on how best to interpret the cryptic codes and register dumps that the error message is giving me. I see also on my system that some of the 'buildtest' executables don't run, producing a variety of error messages. Would it be at all helpful if I were to go through these and list which work and which don't? I haven't seen anything in the mailing list archives or the web site to suggest that some of the build tests are expected to fail on some platforms, so I guess that what I'm seeing is a bad thing. :-) -- Regards Phil Edwards Brighton, UK _______________________________________________ PyInstaller mailing list [email protected] http://lists.hpcf.upr.edu/mailman/listinfo/pyinstaller
