D:\Python\GPRS_Test_Server>

After that, there is a corresponding Exe file in the D:\Python\GPRS_Test_Server\dist\gprs_test_server_ui directory

But the exe cannot be opened.

Put it directly into the command line to open it and find out

C:\Users\nasri.yang>D:\Python\GPRS_Test_Server\dist\gprs_test_server_ui.exe
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "gprs_test_server_ui.py", line 9, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt5'
[7248] Failed to execute script gprs_test_server_ui

It means that PyQt5 is not found

Then I will try to find the

D:\Python\GPRS_Test_Server\env\Lib\site-packages

There is a PyQt5 folder below, put it directly into the dist directory

Then drag the exe to the command line and execute it successfully (but a cmd window will pop up when it is executed)

 

But this is definitely not feasible, your exe cannot be run if you put it on another computer

So we have to find a way. . . . (I haven't thought of other good ways yet) Which great god has a good way, leave a comment below, thank you!

Supplement -i add icon

-w remove the command line

Also, if the icon does not change, you need to move the exe location to see the change.
