How does your program figure out where to find the standard library? Is it relying on the IRONPYTHONPATH environment variable to point to the location of the standard lib? If so, this is currently broken in pyc.py-generated executables and is a known bug: http://ironpython.codeplex.com/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=26706.
As a workaround, you can get the IRONPYTHONPATH environment variable explicitly. If it's not set, try copying "c:\Program Files\IronPython 2.6\Lib" into your program directory. Either way, putting the following code into the beginning of your program should help: import sys from System.Environment import GetEnvironmentVariable ipypath = GetEnvironmentVariable('IRONPYTHONPATH') if ipypath: sys.path.extend(ipypath.split(';')) else: # IRONPYTHONPATH not set, use standard lib redist sys.path.append(".\\Lib") If this doesn't help, try running your program from the command line. After you get rid of the "X.exe has stopped working..." dialog, copy/paste any output you see and send it back to the list (or send it to me personally if confidentiality is desired). - David -----Original Message----- From: users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com [mailto:users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com] On Behalf Of Mico Siahaan Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2010 6:21 PM To: Discussion of IronPython Subject: Re: [IronPython] Distributing scripts as Exe Hi David, I already put all *.dll files into my program directory but got the same problem. Unluckily Windows did not show details of what went wrong. So I have no idea what did really happen.

Try copying "c:\Program Files\IronPython 2.6"\*.dll into your program directory. You will also need to make sure that sys.path is properly set if you're using the CPython standard lib for anything. We realize this is kind of an undesirable workaround, which is why we're planning to put all of IronPython's required DLLs in the GAC at some point in the future. - David -----Original Message----- From: users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com [mailto:users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com] On Behalf Of Mico Siahaan Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2010 3:04 PM To: Users@lists.ironpython.com Subject: [IronPython] Dirstributing scripts as Exe Dear all, In CPython there is py2exe to distribute scripts as exe. I notice there is pyc.py scripts in IronPython\Tools. I tried to use pyc to compile one simple script. It produced an exe file. But when I tried to run the exe file, Windows complained: 'Windows stop working...'. Did I do something wrong? -- Mico | mico.siah...@gmail.com | @bangmico _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
