Hello!
I'm trying to follow the introductory tutorial on using py2exe at
http://py2exe.org/index.cgi/Tutorial. It's very straightforward except that
I keep getting an error when I come to step #3 and I don't know what I need
to do about it:
I'm running Python 2.7 on Windows Vista (32-bit). I've installed Python in
C:\Python27 and py2exe in C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\py2exe. When I reach
step #3 in the tutorial and run my setup script that I just wrote from the
tutorial's guidelines, I get the following error:
C:\Python27>python setup.py py2exe
running py2exe
*** searching for required modules ***
*** parsing results ***
creating python loader for extension 'unicodedata'
(C:\Python27\DLLs\unicodedata
.pyd -> unicodedata.pyd)

-> se
lect.pyd)
creating python loader for extension '_hashlib'
(C:\Python27\DLLs\_hashlib.pyd -
> _hashlib.pyd)
creating python loader for extension 'bz2' (C:\Python27\DLLs\bz2.pyd ->
bz2.pyd)

ependend_dlls
import py2exe_util
ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.
After this error occurs I checked my directories and saw that the dist and
build folders were created inside the C:\Python27 folder as predicted in the
tutorial, but they don't contain any folders or files.
I'm assuming this is a problem with something system not being able to
locate the proper file, but I have exactly no idea how to solve it. Advice?
Enlightenmnet?
Thanks very much.
