Hi,
The main reason you are having difficulty is because of the fact that
you are trying to write the executable to a different directory (dist)
and everything else that is needed is written to the build
subdirectory. So when you run the executable in dist it can't find the
modules. Let me suggest that you remove the targetDir = "dist"
directive in your setup.py and the results should work out much
better. In fact in most cases you can simply do
cx_Freeze.Executable("Voltron.py") and everything will work as
expected. You will also need to specify packages = ["lxml"] as
suggested by Hien Pham in order for this script to work properly.
Hope this helps you out.
