ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import

[Cranbaerry]

Hi,

I'm working on a project and this is my first time trying out pyinstaller and I have encountered this issue upon opening my compiled program: ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import

I'm using the following versions:

• Python 3.7.4
• Numpy 1.17.0
• PyInstaller-4.0.dev0+515bf55a4

I am running this in a virtual environment, and I have tried to use hiddenimport for "numpy" and specifically "numpy.core.multiarray", but to no avail. Still same error.

This is the program's console output in Windows Powershell.

PS D:\Documents\EasyAK\dist\main> .\main.exe
ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import

This looks like not all required files are packages. Please have a look at Make sure everything is packaged correctly for tips to find out what is missing.

Hi,

Thank you for replying, I have just downgraded numpy to version 1.16.4 and it seems to be working fine without any issues.

I'm sorry, I do not understand what you mean by "not all required files are packages". I have looked over the website you linked, I did try both --onedir and --onefile. And --noupx or set upx=False. They all did not work.

I recently did numpy and had simmilar issues. Add the module in hidden imports and try again.
e.g - hiddenimports=['numpy.random.common', 'numpy.random.bounded_integers', 'numpy.random.entropy']

That's a good start. Now continue debugging by following the other hints. (Or close this issue.)

@atvKumar It works, thank you.
