Michael Smith added the comment: Thanks so much Steve I got it working right away!
I peeked into the bdist_wininst.py and saw that it also depended on some local exe files. Copied both of those to the embedded and everything worked like a charm. I did read the documentation previously so I thought the only real dependency was the C Runtime. Working on a network without any net access I have to bring in libraries we version, so basically what you describe "vendoring". If you have time to answer I would like to understand why this particular item is not part of the embedded. Or why is it in the regular install by default? When I look at the distutils documentation there is very little information about this file. Is this particular item a 3rd party not core python or? In any case thanks for the help again. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27617> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
