I seem to be running into some problems here, ( http://pyinstaller.hpcf.upr.edu/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/file/trunk/icon.py )
If I call CopyIcons_FromIco() or CopyIcons() using an .ico as source, the python script runs with no errors, it adds the icon to the exe but breaks the exe, i then get the error message "*** is not a valid win32 application" when i try run the exe in question. when using a compiled resource as the source, i get hsrc = win32api.LoadLibraryEx (srcpath, 0, LOAD_LIBRARY_AS_DATAFILE) error: (193, 'LoadLibraryEx', '%1 is not a valid Win32 application.') when running the python script. Am i doing something wrong? I am using python 2.4.3 pywin32 build 208, running on WinXP pro.
