After Creating Python Exe File With Cx_freeze The File Doesn't Do Anything

I recently created used cx_freeze to create a python 3.2.2 exe file. When I tried to run the exe file nothing happened. Here is the code for my test.py file: print('hello world')

Solution 1:

My suggestion:

1. set base = None (try it: maybe that's all you want? base = Win32GUI does "hide" the console - this is useful when you're building a GUI)

2. In the same folder with your .exe make a batch-file (a text-file with .bat) calling your .exe:

this goes into your batch-file:

name-of-your-app.exe %1

PAUSE

You'll start your app by clicking the batch-file - it keeps the console open so you're able to reed the errors/output.

Solution 2:

Place a input() at the bottom of your code, and try again:

Looks like your .exe runs and exists before you can see anything, so place a input() at the bottom to make the script wait for user input before exiting.

print("hello world")

for i in range(5):
    print(i)
input()
