Hi all,

I've made some progress. Its been slow but its coming along.

The script i made converts first page of PDF to JPEG with Poppler + PDF2image module (installed via pip). Coding in PyCharm. Script runs great. No errors.

I am trying to compile to .EXE via PyInstaller in Windows 10. I use the following CMD:

>>>>C:\python37\Projects\PyThumbnail4>pyinstaller --onefile -w MainScript.py 

OUTPUT:

All goes well, but when I run .EXE from CMD line I get "Failed to Execute Script". Unsure why? Is poppler/PDF2Image not being packaged into my .EXE??


Thank you for your help!

UPDATE:

Issue appears to be when using --noconsole or -w or -windowed with Pyinstaller.

If i do not try and prevent console from running and pkg my file, it runs fine.

Ideas?????

Thanks

Anyone?
