    Description

      Hello team,

      I have an issue when I freeze my PySide2 application.
      I am unable to launch it on a shared directory.
      This issue is related to issues:

      Platform configuration:

      • Windows 10 x86_64
      • Python 3.9.6
      • Virtual Env:
        • cx_Freeze 6.7
        • PySide2 5.15.2

      Here the source code of my example application:

      import os
      import sys
      if getattr(sys, 'frozen', False):
          dll_path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(sys.executable), 'lib')
          print(dll_path)
          os.add_dll_directory(dll_path)
      
      from PySide2 import QtGui, QtCore, QtUiTools, QtWidgets, QtXml
      
      print("Import OK")
      

      Here the setup.py script:

      import os
      import sys
      
      import PySide2
      from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
      
      plugins_path = os.path.join(PySide2.__path__[0], "plugins")
      
      
      base = None
      if sys.platform == 'win32':
          base = 'Win32GUI'
      
      options = {
          'build_exe': {
              "include_files": [os.path.join(plugins_path, "platforms")],  # additional plugins needed by qt at runtime
              "zip_include_packages": ["PySide2", "shiboken2", "encodings"],  # reduce size of packages that are used
              "excludes": ["tkinter", "unittest", "email", "http", "xml", "pydoc", "pdb"],  # exclude packages that are not really needed
          }
      }
      
      executables = [
          Executable('test-gui.py', base='Console')
      ]
      
      setup(
          name='simple_PySide2',
          version='0.1',
          description='Sample cx_Freeze PySide2 script',
          options=options,
          executables=executables
      )
      

      To finish the command line that I use to freeze my application

      python setup.py build --build-exe bin\windows
      

      I specify that this application is built in a virtual environment locally.

      This application works in the following cases:

      • locally:
        • The frozen application: bin\windows\test-gui.exe
        • The application from source: python test-gui.py
      • on shared directory:
        • The application from source: python test-gui.py

      However, the freeze app crashes indefinitely when launched on a shared directory.
      After launching a ctrl-c, below the Python traces

      ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PySide2'
      

       

      For information, the \\filer001\HOME25 (L:) folder is the shared directory on which I launched the application.
      The application is built in the C:\temp\PYTHON39_QT5 directory

      Thanks for your help.
