cx_Freeze: Python error in main script

[robsonsobral]

Running on Windows 10 and installed using Chocolatey.

[kozec]

Does same thing happens when you install without Chocolatey?

(also, sorry, but I have no idea what's written after "DLL load failed:" :)

[robsonsobral]

I gonna test after I get back home, @kozec .

After DLL load failed is written "It wasn't possible to find the specified module".

Thank you for your patience.

Hi,
same problem here with standard install. Same problem also after downgrading from v0.9.2.5 to v0.9.2.4.
The problem happens only when syncthing-gtk is automatically launched at windows startup.
No problem when launching it manually.
OS is Windows 10 with all updates installed.
Best

The problem happens only when syncthing-gtk is automatically launched at windows startup.
No problem when launching it manually.

Ok, now this is important part. That's same as #385, issue that I still have no idea how can be even possible. @robsonsobral is it same on your side?

[robsonsobral]

I couldn't reinstall yet, I'm sorry, but, as happened with @tonirug , the error only occurs when launching with windows startup.

I can confirm this happens on my Windows 7 machine at work, also only during windows startup. Syncthing-Gtk 0.9.2.5 from Chocolatey.

[kozec]

Can anyone of you confirm if registry value HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\SyncthingGTK\\InstallPath points to correct directory on your machine?

[acolomb]

Yes it does, but only exists under HKEY_CURRENT_USER, not under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Could it be that the former is not yet initialized completely during login?

[tonirug]

In W10 appears under Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SyncthingGTK\InstallPath and the path is correct

I have the exact same issue. On W7 and W10 machines. Automatic start fails. Manual works just fine.

Here is the English version of the error.

I am using Windows 10 Version 1703.

Maybe it is already obvious, but there is no C:\Python27 folder on my machine.

Having the same issue, again only on Windows startup - here's the text version of the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\cx_Freeze\initscripts\__startup__.py", line 14, in run 
 File "scripts/syncthing-gtk-exe.py", line 3, in <module>
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

I noticed I was missing Python 2.7 (don't know if I had it installed previously and removed it?) so I installed it, making sure it went in the PATH, but that didn't make a difference.

[kozec]

Soo... I probably got it. Can anyone of you on Win10 try this build?

SyncthingGTK-v0.9.2.5-2-g8864664-win32-full-installer.zip

[robsonsobral]

It worked, @kozec !

[seiferflo]

Thanks @kozec, it's working with this new build !

[hugalafutro]

Thanks for the update it now works as expected when autostarting.

[yaomtc]

It also works again for me. Must be fixed now. Thanks a lot!

[kozec]

Thanks for all confirmation, this is now fixed in latest release.

After upgrading to v0.9.2.7 from Chocolatey, this error still occurred for me at system boot. Even starting manually afterwards did not work: ImportError: cannot import name Configuration. Starting with syncthing-gtk-console.exe from a terminal kind of worked, but the connection to the daemon could not be established, although it was definitely reachable from a browser.

All these troubles went away after an uninstall - install cycle with Chocolatey. Hope this helps anybody still having similar troubles.
