翻译First I'll mention that I'm using Python 2.7.6 through the Anaconda distribution on Windows 7.
When running pyinstaller --onefile MyScripy.py I am only getting one error which is the one mentioned in the title and the exe is created. When running the exe there are some issues using the ctypes library which I beleive are related to said error.
I get this error a total of 12 times in the output from the pyinstaller command. Here is the complete output:
