Building the EXE, but won't start under Windows #45

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
0. Got a readonly copy of the sources from SVN, using Tortoise SVN client
1. I followed the steps to be able to build the Windows EXE
2. Installed Python, NSIS, copied MSVC runtime manifest, etc.
3. Compilation works and a PG.exe is outputted
4. Run the PG.EXE. It shows like trying to start (hourglass flashes 2 seconds), 
but after nothing appears

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The main UI should appear, but it does not.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows XP SP3, Python 2.7 (as I found no longer 2.55), latest NSIS 

Please help

I forgot to specify: After compilation, the new PG.EXE is much smaller 
(1,423,808) than the original PG.EXE (4,327,059) from the site.

I've been doing the builds on Windows 7 with (I think) Python 2.6, 32bit.  I 
haven't done the build process in a few months but it sounds like a problem 
with py2exe or the way python is installed/configured.
