Cx-Freeze Error - Python 34

cx-freeze, python, python-3.x

Solution

You should install cx_freeze from this site. It contains an important patch that solves the problem (see this discussion for detailed).

Problem

I have a Cx_Freeze setup file that I am trying to make work. What is terribly frustrating is that it used to Freeze appropriately. Now, however, I get the following error: edit. the error that shows up is not a Python exception through the console, but a crash report when attempting to launch the resulting exe file generated through the freeze. 'File 'notetest.py', line 1, in _find_and_load importlib_bootstrap.py, line 2214 .... ``` AttributeError 'module' object has no attribute '_fix_up_module' ``` My setup.py file follows: ``` import sys import os from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable build_exe_options = {'packages': [], 'excludes' : []} base = 'Win32GUI' exe = Executable( script = 'notetest.py', initScript = None, base = 'Win32GUI', targetName = 'MedicaidAid.exe', compress = True, appendScriptToExe = True, appendScriptToLibrary = True, icon = None ) setup( name = 'MedicaidAid', version = '0.85', description = 'MedicaidAid Software', options = {'build_exe': build_exe_options}, executables = [Executable('notetest.py', base = base)]) ```
