I have made a script in python using urllib abd bs4 and i want to make it executable using cx-freeze.But I am not able to do it. It shows the following error:

This is not necessarily a problem - the modules may not be needed on this platfo
rm.
I have imported bs4, requests, re, time in my program. What should I do?
If builds fail because they aren't automatically including imported libraries you can add them into the package section of your setup.py. See this post.
setup.py
import sys
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
# Dependencies are automatically detected, but it might need fine tuning.
build_exe_options = {"packages": ["bs4, urllib, requests"], "excludes": [""]}
# GUI applications require a different base on Windows (the default is for a
# console application).
base = None
if sys.platform == "win32":
base = "Win32GUI"
setup( name = "my-app",
version = "0.9.0",
description = "Copyright 2013",
options = {"build_exe": build_exe_options},
executables = [Executable("my_module.py", base=base)])
You likely might only have to specify bs4, most modules should be found and included automatically. BS4 is known to have issues? so just try including that at first.
here is the docs for cx_freeze.
