[SOLVED] py2exe error when trying to build Windows installer

[MitchMan]

I am having a problem when I try to build any repository of cfclient (including 2014.12.1) into a Windows installer/exe. All pre-requisites from the Bitcraze instructions have been installed.

I get the following error when running setup.py py2exe :-



Any help would be greatly appreciated to allow me to make an installer.

This is a classical bug with py2exe/pyqt, the solution is to remove the folder port_v3 (the one indicated in the error message).

This happens because pyqt installs python3 packages in a python2 installation, which does not work when py2exe tries to load them.

Best regards,
