I've trying to convert my simple wxpython GUI (mygui.py) to .exe file with pyinstaller and by running "pyinstaller mygui.py" everything goes ok, I got application (exe) file, but can't run, just open blank console. I'm sure something is pretty wrong I'm doing there, but I don't know what is it. Is there missing parameters I give, like output path? This is the first time I'm trying to make exe file, I don't know what else information to share with you...

  • have you tried using the latest version of pyinstaller from github? (`pip install -U git+https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller.git`). It's a general advise in case of obscure building problems. – 9dogs Aug 24 '17 at 09:21
  • I'm going to try now. One more question, maybe stupid, maybe not. Is it possible to make exe file on ubuntu (not running, just make it)? @9dogs – jovicbg Aug 24 '17 at 11:19
  • no, currently pyinstaller [can't do cross-compiling](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/wiki/FAQ) – 9dogs Aug 24 '17 at 11:26
  • There is no way to cross-compile with pyinstaller or any of the others (py2exe, cx_freeze, etc). You will also want to use the `-w` flag since this is a GUI app. See https://pythonhosted.org/PyInstaller/usage.html#windows-and-mac-os-x-specific-options for more info. – Mike Driscoll Aug 24 '17 at 13:30
  • what are the modules you import ? it seems pyinstaller behaves depending on imported modules (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45750676/build-a-exe-for-windows-from-a-python-3-script-importing-pyqtgraph-and-opening) – Stéphane Aug 25 '17 at 08:37
