ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bleak'

[Jackiii1989]

Hi,

I am trying to create exe, but the pyinstaller won't include the bleak library in the build. I installed the pyinstaller through pip: pip install pyinstaller

Debug Info:

Traceback:

...
import 'multiprocessing.sharedctypes' # <_frozen_importlib_external.SourcelessFileLoader object at 0x000002AA91C0B5C0>
bleak not found in PYZ
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "", line 1324, in _find_and_load_unlocked
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bleak'
[17264] Failed to execute script 'main' due to unhandled exception!
...

I also wrote a minimal example program and it worked.

What did I do wrong? Thanks for the help

You need to install and run PyInstaller in the same environment as your packages.

Hi,

I added now the pyinstaller to my virtual environment:

winrt-Windows.Storage.Streams                           2.0.0b1

And created the .exe like this:

(.venv) PS C:\python_workspace\Gui_trilateration_BLEAK\exeFile> pyinstaller.exe --clean --onefile --debug=all --paths="C:\\python_workspace\\Gui_trilateration_BLEAK\\.venv\\Lib\\site-packages" ..\main.py -n test1

However, when I execute the exe. It seems like it is trying to load modules/library in the memory, but it can not load the libraries and then it is just restarting again. It is just printing a lot of output text, but not doing anything. I would expect the GUI to at least start, but it does not. I have included the log output in the exe.log file.

exe.log

If I look in the folder build/test1/xref-test1.html then it complaints that certain modules are not imported:

Should I import them somehow or tell pyinstaller where to find them?

Your program seems to be "restarting" because it is using multiprocessing and is trying to spawn the multiprocessing resource tracker:

...

# multiprocessing.resource_tracker not found in PYZ
# code object from 'C:\\Users\\user_1\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\_MEI180482\\multiprocessing\\resource_tracker.pyc'

Thank you both. The executable is now working.
