Pyinstaller 没有名为 msvc 的模块

Question

I am using Pyinstaller on Ubuntu to create a binary executable for my Python code. This code has a bunch of files and dependencies. One of them is tensorflow . The executable is getting created correctly but when I try to run it, I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: No module named msvc

How can I resolve this error and run the file correctly?

Answer 1

I added msvc to the hidden imports. I'm still battling imports, but seem to be past this one.

{
    a = Analysis(['/Users/Ben/Documents/DeepMeerkat/DeepMeerkat/main.py'],
                 pathex=['/Users/ben/Documents/DeepMeerkat/DeepMeerkat/'],
                 binaries=[],
                 datas=[],
                 hiddenimports=['setuptools.msvc'],
                 hookspath=[],
                 runtime_hooks=[],
                 excludes=[ 'enchant', 'twisted'],
                 win_no_prefer_redirects=False,
                 win_private_assemblies=False,
                 cipher=block_cipher)
}

This problem was solved by using the dev version of Pyinstaller. More details here: https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/2824
