compile standalone, incorrect __file__ variable

[Jaroslove]

Hi all,
I use nuitka with follow command:
python -m nuitka --standalone --follow-imports main.py
I use nuitka:
2.1.5
Commercial: None
Python: 3.11.8 | packaged by conda-forge | (main, Feb 16 2024, 20:40:50) [MSC v.1937 64 bit (AMD64)]
Flavor: Anaconda Python
Executable: ..\python.exe
OS: Windows
Arch: x86_64
WindowsRelease: 10

It compiled, after that I run .exe file, when I send a request I have an error, in the compiled code a variable __file__ is None
Could you provide to me some information, how to fix this, please?

Without an example code there is nothing to do here, it certainly isn't universally true, the file value is usually correct.

Thank you for the answer!
I have a project which used some external libs, one of them is insightface==0.7.3,
I installed the lib {pip install insightface}, when I run my app with .py files it works without error.
However, when I compiled my app {using python -m nuitka --standalone --follow-imports main.py} on windows (or linux)
my app start {run .exe(or .bin on linux) file)} and I have an error.
The error is in this file /usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/insightface/data/pickle_object.py
Here the code of the file:

import cv2
import os
import os.path as osp
from pathlib import Path
import pickle

def get_object(name):
    objects_dir = osp.join(Path(__file__).parent.absolute(), 'objects')
    if not name.endswith('.pkl'):
        name = name+".pkl"
    filepath = osp.join(objects_dir, name)
    if not osp.exists(filepath):
        return None
    with open(filepath, 'rb') as f:
        obj = pickle.load(f)
    return obj

file has wrong value and function return None

That's an indication of missing data files. Do you have like a minimal example of insightface failing, then we can add that. But you should also be easily able to do it yourself.

If you are available to do a PR, this can be fixed by adding to the yaml configuration, described here: https://nuitka.net/doc/nuitka-package-config.html

the website has been going some changes so a few links might not be working properly

[kayhayen]

Yeah, it was moved, I added a redirect, breaking old links is not good.

With no example and no improvements coming forth, lets consider this one as invalid.
