Error when compiling in windows

[Neilaj]

Hello when i run my program from the prompt it works fine but when I compile and run it I get the error below. Can you shed some light on this? Thanks

Say something!
Exception in Tkinter callback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "tkinter_init_.py", line 1550, in call
File "pygui\main.py", line 58, in combined_func

Umm, can you describe exactly what you mean by "from the prompt" vs. "compile and run it"? You don't "compile" python.

When i run from cmd " python main.py" it works perfectly. But when i create an exe with "pyinstaller --onefile main.py " I get the main.exe and when i try to run it i get the error above. Thanks for this great module too.

It looks to me like pyinstaller is not properly bundling TCL into the "compiled" package. This is a known issue: pyinstaller/pyinstaller#1957. People seem to report that downgrading to pyinstaller 3.1 fixed the issue for them, so I would try that and see how it goes. I'm going to close this issue, but feel free to comment on it again if you've got more questions.
