I'm trying to create an .exe from my python script. The script uses the cloudscraper package. When I create the .exe and I execute it, it shows the following error:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\...\\MEI1....\\cloudscraper\\user_agent\\browsers.json'
The error ONLY APPEARS WHEN I TRY TO EXECUTE THE .exe file.
Why is this happening? Is cloudscraper unavailable with pyinstaller?
The project structure looks like this:
C:\Users\andre\OneDrive\Documentos\Programming\Python\Python3\proyect
proyect
|
|______ main.py
|
|______ services
|________ __init__.py
|_______ main_service.py
|_______ sql_service.py
This is very similar to my project structure since obviously, I cannot share the actual project structure of my project.
The found solution is to copy the required folder inside the .exe path but as for now a days, I found that this could not be achieved if you're using the --onefile modifier to create the .exe, instead you should not use it and copy the cloudscraper folder inside such .exe path, and that should work
NOTE:
The path is NOT THE PARENT FOLDER cloudscraper, instead is the nested folder which in it has the user_agent folder
