When trying to convert python file to exe using pyinstaller or auto-py-to-exe, one ERROR appear repeatedly to me which is .exe can'f find file in
{_AbsolutePath_}\tmp_MEI******\base_library.zip\{_FileName_}
when using
os.path.join(sys.path[0])
These are my arguments for pyinstaller: --noconfirm --onefile --runtime-tmpdir "./tmp"
To fix that, use helper funtion when you ever specify path in your code:
def remove_last_three_dirs(path):
for _ in range(3):
path = os.path.dirname(path)
return path
And replace
os.path.join(sys.path[0])
with
os.path.join(remove_last_three_dirs(sys.path[0]))
Why is that? BC converted exe sys.path[0] is
{_AbsolutePath_}\tmp_MEI******\base_library.zip
but not as you expected relative path.
