Okay, so i pretty much despise Py2EXE because i have not once successfully compiled a program 

 

so can anyone help me with py2exe im trying to compile my Inventory Manager so i can have Neoquest test it out but i cant seem to get it compiled (his BeautifulSoup isnt working so im making it an exe )

 

so he gave me his setup.py to make one exe with no dependencies and i run it and get an error that says i dont have a dll so i found the dll on my hard drive and put it in the same directory then when i run it i get this Traceback:

console = [{'script': filenameyeah}])

 

filenameyeah is your script file?

console = [{'script': filenameyeah}])
 
filenameyeah is your script file?

Yeah it's a variable it gets assigned when the user is prompted for the file name

From the error message it sounds like the file isn't getting found.

Why not post your setup.py script so we can figure out why it's not compiling?

 

Or, use PyInstaller.
