Packaging broken with cx_Freeze or PyInstaller about infi.systray HOT 4 CLOSED

For Pyinstaller use these additional commands:
--hidden-import pkg_resources --hidden-import infi.systray

from infi.systray.

I'm afraid I'm not familiar enough with these tools to debug the issue. Perhaps you should try to report this issue on their side. I don't know of anything that the package is doing wrong so I don't have anything to fix.

@activatedtmx You're very great!

In the past, I put the following code in my scrip (.py)
from infi.systray import SysTrayIcon
I already installed infi.systray from pip and checked the installed version with this command pip show infi.systray (Result: Version: 0.1.11); location: C:\Users\Admin\appdata\local\programs\python\python37-32\Lib\site-packages\ with 2 folders: "infi" and "infi.systray-0.1.11-py3.7.egg-info").
+My OS Windows 7 (32 bit)
+Python 3.7.1

*Firstly, I run my program successfully on console:
python my_program.py
However, I built the .exe file by pyinstaller and ran the .exe file:
+Sometimes, I double clicked on .exe and saw error "Failed to execute script" and the program stopped
+Sometimes, I double clicked on .exe and with no error but nothing happened. (the program stopped)

*I checked carefully and realized that the error just happened at the line in my script:
from infi.systray import SysTrayIcon
And it just happened if file .exe (it's okay with running my_program.py from consonle with python)

*I followed your instruction and it's good to build file .exe and the file .exe works well.
Here is my full command to build my program:
pyinstaller --hidden-import pkg_resources --hidden-import infi.systray --add-data="Becksport.jpg;." --add-data="becksport__eZD_icon.ico;." --icon="becksport__eZD_icon.ico" -d all my_program.py

After running that command, I saw values automatically generated in my_program.spec as:
hiddenimports=['pkg_resources', 'infi.systray']

To be noted that we need to copy 2 folders "infi" and "infi.systray-0.1.11-py3.7.egg-info" into the same folder containing file my_program.py and my_program.spec. It let pyinstall locate the installed packages.
If I don't copy installed packages to the same folder containing file my_program.py and my_program.spec, maybe we need to modify the command line of pyinstaller to let it know where the installed packages are.

One more time, thank you so much for your instruction.

Solution by @activatedtmx seems to be the solution at least for Pyinstaller. Closing it as per comments.
