Permission Error When Trying to Use PyInstaller

问题

When trying to deploy a Kivy App using PyInstaller, I am getting Permission Denied errors even when using and Administrator CMD. The folder has all open editing options for every user. Python has firewall access. How to fix this?

回答1:

Trick is to make a new directory outside of the one you are building, and then make the build reference the main.py of the Kivy app like in the code below. This fixes permission errors, even from a regular CMD.

PS C:\Users\theguy\Documents\Python\myapp-build> python -m PyInstaller --name "MyApp" "C:\Users\theguy\Documents\Python\myapp\main.py"
