I built a python based program. Prior to this project, I have not run a python program from an exe, but I needed to run this project from an exe on a Windows 10 machine. Using pyinstaller I created and tested the final project without issue, but as soon as I set it up on another computer, it returned an "Importing the numpy C-extensions failed" error message. This seemed weird because I did not receive this error on my computer. So I created a clean installation on a VM, and no error. The other system has python installed, but the version is the same as the one I am using on my computer. Regardless of the installed python version, I thought pyinstaller created a stand-alone python environment.
Is there something I should check or compare between the two systems?
Additionally, my system and the VM started the program without a Windows Defender popup, but the problematic system shows a "Windows protected your PC" popup that needs to be bypassed. Is there a Windows defender setting that might be causing this issue?
Thank you to anyone who has information on this issue. I am fairly new to Python and could use any positive advice available.
I have run the program on a clean VM, with no issues. After some research, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the numpy on the problematic system, but the issue persists. I cannot figure out what is casuing the error on one system but not any others.
I'm running a python script and it used to work (it even does on my other laptop right now) but not on my current computer - I just get the error code:
Process finished with exit code -1073741515 (0xC0000135)
I don't get any other results - not even from "print" commands at the beginning of the file.
I haven't found anything specific to that.
I re-installed python (2.7.9), pygame (1.9.1) and even pycharm (tried 4.5 first, now with 5.0 - same result)
Does anyone know what that error code means? I couldn't find anything about it.
reinstall python – you don't have python33.dll in c:\WINDOWS\system32\
Maybe you have different python versions – look at folders in root of c:
If yes, then point to your version of python.exe in pyCharm > Settings > Project Interpreter
This may be due to another program locking that memory location.
Before you try more drastic measures, know that restarting the computer fixed the problem for me.
The error seems to be related to issues in native code (e.g. C/C++) and might be related to issues in loading some dll file. To know which file, the Windows "Event Viewer" is your friend.
The "Event Viewer" -> "Windows Logs" -> "Application" feed usually shows one or more rows for each crashed application and one of them should list the problematic filename.
Personally I observed similar issue with matplotlib on Python 3.9 (installed using Anaconda on Windows 10). I could see this kind of error when the code was executed using PyCharm. The same code just crashed with no visible errors when starting from Anaconda console.
The Event viewer then showed issue with freetype.dll. In this case, the problem was fixed by downgrading the packege from 2.11.0 to 2.10.4:
conda install freetype=2.10.4
Depending on the exact issue, I could imagine that removing pycache folder might help (like mentioned in other answers). Also, sometimes it might make sense to look at the PATH environment variable to actually understand why certain dll file is loaded from such a location.
I got this error in PyCharm after upgrading pyarrow to the most recent version -- 0.16 --- using pip, running the same code I had ran before this update which used pandas read_parquet specifying the engine="pyarrow" triggering use of this library. After uninstalling and installing the previous version with
pip install pyarrow=="0.15"
the problem resolved.
I encountered the same error when running .py in PyCharm on Windows. Inspired by https://thenewboston.com/forum/topic.php?id=10088, I uninstalled and reinstalled Python. When reinstalling, I checked the ADD PYTHON TO THE PATH Option. After recreating the virtual environment in PyCharm, the error was gone.
Update: On another Windows PC (64-bit), I encountered the same error where reinstalling Python was not enough. I tried two things.
Uninstalling 32-bit Python and installing 64-bit Python. Namely downloading python-3.6.4-amd64.exe instead of python-3.6.4.exe
Recreating the Pycharm project from github.
Between the two actions, the error was gone.
taskkill /F /IM python.exe
Try this if it just happened out of the bloom and it worked normally before that error occurred.
I solved it by disabling "PyQt compatible" checkbox in the Settings under Build, Execution, Deployment --> Python Debugger.
After that, it should debug properly.
Here is caused it and solution:
The computer had two physical processors. The code uses Numba for parallel computations. Upon disabling and re-enabling hyperthreading this issue started. To solve it clear pycache folder and run the program.
I encountered this error in my code as well, in my case the problem was sharing pickle which produced in Unix machine one a Windows one.
**I faced the same situation and the malfunction stems from trying to run both terminal processor and graphical user interfaces. When I clicked the button program stopped running **
Solution: I disabled terminal inputs and work with graphics.
For example:
if you do this
entry1=Entry(root,width=10).pack()
variable= str(input("Whats your name?"))
You will see the error.
if you delete either entry1 or variable, you will not see the problem.
If you're trying create a .svm use dlib probably the problem is in .xml, some image that you use is cause the problem. Try to create a new .xml putting out a image(any image) or remove that your .xml and test, try this even you find out the image problem.
For exemple, the image "treinamento3.jpg" was the problem. I removed this command line:
< image file='delirium\treinamento3.jpg'>
< box top='213' left='86' width='46' height='49'/ >
< box top='531' left='47' width='125' height='123'/ >
< /image >
from my .xml for solve my problem.
I have a python package that acts like a wrapper for a .dll written in C#. The binary is imported into python by the pythonnet package. Thus, the user can access the functionality of the so called cs_backend.dll conveniently from the python side. The import looks as follows:
import clr as __clr
import System as __System
__clr.AddReference(PATH_TO_CS_BACKEND + "\\cs_backend")
import cs_backend as __csb # exception thrown here
However, it seems that python can't import the .dll as I get a ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cs_backend'.
The odd thing is that this error only occures when running the code from Spyder. Executing exactly the same code from Visual Studio Code works perfectly fine.
Do you have any idea what the problem could be?
system specifications
os: windows 10
.net framework v4.5.1
python 3.8.5
spyder 4.2.1
Edit:
I have found a github issue on the pythonnet repository that describes a similar (although not quite the same) problem. However, since it has been open for about 3 years, it seems that there is little to no progress on that.
Edit 2:
There is a similar question here on stack overflow. The solution was to install a newer .NET Framework. This is not my problem since with any IDE other than Spyder the code works just fine. Thus, I guess that this is mainly a Spyder issue.
Currently, it seems that there is neither a solution nor an effort to resolve this problem.
It looks like the problem is caused by the IPython console integrated in Spyder.
A simple workaround is to execute the python script from the system console.
In Spyder this can be done by going to Run - Configuration per file - Execute in external system console.
With the new configuration it is at least possible to run the script.
tried re-installing more than once. tried opening from cmd and get the following error: python error
Am new to programming so stuck trying to solve this.
things tried: re-installing (user only, all users), previous version 3.8
things i know: a previous software seems to use python files under 2.8 something.
any help is much appreciated.
Thanks
I am trying to convert my .py file to an exe file. I've done it in the past but for some reason it isn't working anymore. I am using Python 2.7 and have other versions installed as well but my application won't work without 2.7. If I do python activityKivy.py it runs perfectly. I also tried with py2exe but was unsuccessful, it gave me too many dll warnings and would crash each time I open it. I prefer to stick with pyinstaller because thats what always worked for me. Some help would greatly be appreciates!

**Update: I wasn't able to figure out exactly what the problem was but I was playing around with my environment variables and changing my pip names to pip2 pip3 and thats when this problem started happening and even when I reverted all my changes it still showed me this.I was able to fix it by simply uninstalling pyinstaller and redownloading it.
