run py2exe under windows 7, can not excecute file under windows XP

Question

I created a exe-file from my Python+Gtk application using py2exe. With windwos 7 it works, but I can't get it running under windwos XP. I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "debug4iConnect.py", line 1, in <module>
  File "startApp.pyc", line 1, in <module>
  File "gtk\__init__.pyc", line 40, in <module>
  File "gtk\_gtk.pyc", line 12, in <module>
  File "gtk\_gtk.pyc", line 10, in __load
ImportError: DLL load failed: Impossibile trovare la procedura specificata.

I tried to find missing dlls using dependency-walker and recieved this messages:

LoadLibraryA("c:\......\zlib.pyd") returned NULL. Error: Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato (126).

LoadLibraryExA("c:\.....\gtk._gtk.pyd", 0x00000000, LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH) returned NULL. Error: Impossibile trovare la procedura specificata (127).

"Impossibile trovare la procedura specificata" means: Impossible to find specified procedure. 
"Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato" means: Impossible to find the specified module.

This thread seams to be a similar problem, but the solution doesn't work for me: Py2exe - win32api.pyc ImportError DLL load failed

Has someone an idea what I could do?

UPDATE: I tried dependencywalker again and found some missing dlls:

API-MS-WIN-SECURITY-BASE-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-SECURITY-LSALOOKUP-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-SERVICE-MANAGEMENT-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-SERVICE-MANAGEMENT-L2-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-SERVICE-WINSVC-L1-1-0.DLL
CRYPTBASE.DLL
MSJAVA.DLL,

I added them, and now I get this error:

When I execute the application I get the error:

Fatal Python error: Interpreter not initialized (version mismatch?)

When I delete zlib.pyd again I get the ImportError above. I found out that my zlib.pyd is from python2.4 and there is no zlib.pyd for 2.7 anymore, it shoul be included in python27.dll. Is this correct?

Answer 1

解决：我设置了"bundle_files": 3和"skip_archive": True现在可以了

Answer 2

I had this problem too. For me the solution was to exclude the MSWSOCK.dll and POWRPROF.dll libraries from the collection:

setup(
    # other options ommited...
    options={
        "py2exe":{
            "dll_excludes": ["POWRPROF.dll", "MSWSOCK.dll"]
        }
    },
)

This also got rid of all the MS_API_*.dll files.

Answer 3

You can use dependency walker to find the missing dll.

May be you need to install the Visual Studio redistribuables on the XP machine.
