I'm trying to build a one-file EXE with PyInstaller.
I'm importing it with Ui_MainWindow, QtBaseClass = uic.loadUiType("first_qt.ui") code inside main.py file.
pyinstaller --name="MyApplication" --onefile main.py
Code output:

When I run the application I get the following error:
File "main.py", line 18, in <module>
File "site-packages/PyQt5/uic/__init__.py", line 200, in loadUiType

I tried to convert it to first.py file with pyuic5 and try failed. Is there another way?
Similar topics: PyInstaller + UI Files - FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
Edit:
After executing the pyuic5 first_qt.ui > output.py command, I added import output to main.py:
...
import output
#Ui_MainWindow, QtBaseClass = uic.loadUiType("first_qt.ui")
# Import .ui forms for the GUI using function resource_path()
form = resource_path("first_qt.ui")
Ui_MainWindow, QtBaseClass = uic.loadUiType(form)
def resource_path(relative_path):
""" Get absolute path to resource, works for dev and for PyInstaller """
try:
# PyInstaller creates a temp folder and stores path in _MEIPASS
base_path = sys._MEIPASS
except Exception:
base_path = os.path.abspath(".")
return os.path.join(base_path, relative_path)
...
I got an error output like this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 22, in <module>
NameError: name 'resource_path' is not defined
[7217] Failed to execute script main
I got rid of the above error. Now I've encountered an error like this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 34, in <module>
File "site-packages/PyQt5/uic/__init__.py", line 200, in loadUiType

Edit2: MyApplication.spec output:

pathex=['/home/Installer'],

exe = EXE(pyz,

debug=False,
bootloader_ignore_signals=False,
strip=False,
upx=True,

Then I ran the pyinstaller MyApplication.spec command.
Problem solved.
