Certificate error

[rubengr]

When trying to create .exe file i get this error:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.17763.0\x64
Using this signtool: C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.17763.0\x64
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise RuntimeError('Expected to find exactly one PFX in the outer dir, found this: %r' % pfx_path)
RuntimeError: Expected to find exactly one PFX in the outer dir, found this: []

Where i can find the .pfx file?
Thanks

You need to obtain one from a certifying agency, like this (not an ad, first result from Google): https://www.digicert.com/code-signing

Ok, so i need certificate to make the executable? Other question is, why i can't see the icons in GUI TOOL?
Thanks

Sorry, I should have clarified that the certificate is only necessary if you want to produce a signed executable. Non-signed binaries work equally well, but if you tried to distribute them to other users, they'd get a nasty warning saying that the binary comes from an unidentified source and can't be trusted. Depending on your use case, this may be a non-issue, in which case just comment out the part of the build script that signs the binary.

Other question is, why i can't see the icons in GUI TOOL?

Maybe the fontawesome package is not installed right or is of a wrong version.

Thanks Pavel. After trying to create the .exe i need to define tcl and tk location manually (os.environ['TCL_LIBRARY'] = r'C:\Users...'). After this, i get this error:

copying C:\gui_tool\gui\DLLs\sqlite3.dll -> build\exe.win-amd64-3.7\sqlite3.dll
error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\gui_tool\gui\DLLs\sqlite3.dll'

Maybe the fontawesome package is not installed right or is of a wrong version.

I installed fontawesome and don't works..

copying C:\gui_tool\gui\DLLs\sqlite3.dll -> build\exe.win-amd64-3.7\sqlite3.dll
error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\gui_tool\gui\DLLs\sqlite3.dll'

Where did the first path (C:\gui_tool\gui\DLLs\sqlite3.dll) come from? Can you post the entire build log here please?

[rubengr]

first path is my directory project/environment

C:\gui_tool> python setup.py bdist_msi

This is insane. So I found this:

Line 2479:

copying C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\Library\bin\sqlite3.dll -> build\exe.win-amd64-3.7\lib\sqlite3.dll

Line 8514:

copying C:\gui_tool\gui\DLLs\sqlite3.dll -> build\exe.win-amd64-3.7\sqlite3.dll

The path C:\gui_tool\gui\DLLs does not seem to appear anywhere else and I have no idea what component is trying to copy it. I'm afraid you will have to investigate that yourself. You've probably figured out by now that distributing Python Windows applications is a lot of fun. If you can't find a proper solution, just copy the DLL from build\exe.win-amd64-3.7\lib\sqlite3.dll to C:\gui_tool\gui\DLLs\sqlite3.dll manually.

After copy DLL and build again i'm able to install .msi file but .exe doesn't work. uavcan is install but gives this error:

What arch you're on -- x86 or amd64? If it's the former, the DLL is not working because it's built for amd64 (judging from the earlier logs). Otherwise, I can't help much; consider asking on StackOverflow. Sorry.
