Python 2.7 Cx_Freeze: Importerror: No Module Named _Startup_

Why am I getting a no module named cx_Freeze error after installing cx_freeze?

Finally found the solution to this problem! Been trying for two days and a programmer friend helped me (I'm not a programmer myself).

So, when you type in "python setup.py build" to cmd, what it tries to do is look for python.exe in the folder you are in, and if it doesn't find it there then looks to system paths (which you can access with the command "echo %PATH%").

So it looks there, it finds python and runs it - but python doesn't have cx_Freeze. Why? Because the python in the system path is an older version you have!! For me it was 2.6.5, despite me using 3.3. And this older version naturally didn't have cx_Freeze in it because I installed it to 3.3. This also explains why trying "import cx_Freeze" in IDLE works without problems.

To see which version of python cmd is calling, type only "python" in cmd and it will show you.

Ok, so the quick solution is to simply add the full absolute path leading to desired python.exe. For python 3.3 it's:

c:\python33\python setup.py build

The long-term solution is to add python 3.3 to your system paths. I haven't done it myself, but this should be the info on how to do it http://geekswithblogs.net/renso/archive/2009/10/21/how-to-set-the-windows-path-in-windows-7.aspx

It's a late answer, but I hope this at least helps someone else. Enjoy your cx_Freeze

When I try to compile and .exe I get ImportError: No module named six

After Gabriel asked for the screenshot I took a closer look.

pip install urllib3 --upgrade solved the issue, which I found here:

cx_Freeze no module named google Error

No module named 'google'

To import google or anything from google there must be a __init__.py file in the google directory.
Create that file in google directory and you can import from it.
I had same exact problem.

ImportError: No module named 'queue' while running my app freezed with cx_freeze

I had the same issues running on Ubuntu with Python 3.5. It seems that cx_freeze has problems with libraries that import other files or something like that.

Importing Queue together with requests worked for me, so:

import requests
from multiprocessing import Queue

And I don't think specifying urllib in "packages": ["urllib", "requests"] is necessary.
