I've run into a curious problem with PyI: I build an executable, on my
Win7 machine, that gets distributed to multiple machines. I found that
on a Win XP machine, the executable never starts; instead, I get a
dialog that says "The application has failed to start because the
application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may
fix this problem". I found (after trying multiple things) that the
problem is "fixed" simply by removing the PyI-generated .manifest file
(which I've attached for reference); with it gone, the executable runs fine.
It also runs fine on a Win 7 machine, with or without the manifest file.
I'm tempted to tell the .spec file to just remove the manifest file, but
first I'd like to hear from folks more knowledgeable than I.
