Good day,
I'm having trouble using cx_Freeze in the code that I am working on converting to .exe.
When I run cx_Freeze, I get the following ImportError that there are no scipy modules
running install
running build
running build_exe
Traceback (most recent call last):

I can confirm that I have Scipy 0.16 installed on my system, which works when I import it into other python code. I am currently running python 3.4 on Windows. Below is the setup.py file for cx_Freeze.
import cx_Freeze
import sys
import matplotlib
base = None
if sys.platform == 'win32':
base = 'Win32GUI'
executables = [cx_Freeze.Executable('fractureGUI.py', base=base, icon='star_square.ico')]
packages = ['tkinter','matplotlib','scipy']
include_files = ['star_square.ico', 'C:\\Python34\\Lib\\site-packages\\scipy']
cx_Freeze.setup(
name = 'FracturePositionMonteCarlo',
options = {'build_exe': {'packages':packages,
'include_files':include_files}},
version = '0.01',
description = 'Fracture Depth Monte Carlo',
executables = executables
)
Below is the import section of my main script, fractureGUI.py.
import scipy
from random import random
import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.mlab as mlab
matplotlib.use('TkAgg')
from matplotlib.backends.backend_tkagg import FigureCanvasTkAgg
from matplotlib import style
style.use('ggplot')
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk, filedialog
import sys
import json
If anyone has any ideas why cx_Freeze cannot find scipy, please let me know. I tried adding a filepath to scipy in include_files, but that didn't matter.
Yours faithfully,
