I have a fairly large wx application I have built and would like to compile it into a executable file. I have done this before, however, the process has become more complicated because I am working with several other dependencies (packages) and my program is composed of multiple .py files. Before I post the code, I'll describe the initial error message.
Error Message
I navigate to the directory where all my script files are saved and execute the following command in the prompt (cmd) window:
pyinstaller -F AMI_GUI.py
Pyinstaller initially runs okay however at the end of process I get this error:
TypeError: iteration over non-sequence
I have posted a screen shot to better show this error.
What is interesting is what happens next, I try running the same command again, 'pyinstaller -F AMI_GUI.py'. But this time the error does not occur, instead the process finishes and in my dist directory my executable has been created. I am also able to run the executable.
Has anyone ran into this problem before when compiling applications using pyinstaller? I have not done extensive testing on the executable file yet, but I am worried in trusting it because pyinstaller process failed on the first time.
I have posted part of my code which shows the dependencies and some of my code:

engine = create_engine("sqlite:///./AMI_case.db", #"oracle://rai:raisys@njnwkora18_oraa.db.pseg.com",
echo=False)
Session = sessionmaker( bind=engine )
session = Session()
Not sure if this code will help, but it does show how what import statements I have used...the some of the main file that I am running with the pyinstall command is AMI_GUI.py.
did a bit of googling, it definitely looks like a pyinstaller bug.
