Python – Trouble in building executable

I was at this all day and found a workaround, it’s sneaky but it works. In the error message I was receiving I noticed that there was a space between in library .zip. I could not trace it down in the source code for py2exe or selenium. I too had tried putting the xpi file in the library zip and it did not work. The workaround is:

1. In your setup file use these options:

   setup(
       console=['yourFile.py'],
       options={
               "py2exe":{
                       "skip_archive": True,
                       "unbuffered": True,
                       "optimize": 2
               }
       }
   )
   

2. Run the py2exe install

3. Copy the xpi file into the dist directory

That should do it.
