Christian Bachmaier added the comment: Sorry guys, library loading of a freezed binary is different to interpreter mode. This is a bug in freeze, or at least an undocumented missing feature of freeze. This is no side discussion.
And, in Python 3.2 this was working! As described above, just creating a subdir psycopg2 in the working direktory of the frozen binary containing a link _psycopg.so to the library. This is a fact. I have two working production systems using this mechanism under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Ok, psycopg2 seems to load the so file indirectly over __init__.py, however, the interpreter and older versions of freeze support that. The psycopg2 guys do not see any problem in that, see the closed entry linked above in their bug database. A workaround/hack I am using successfully now is to replace any 'import psycopg2._psycopg' by 'import _psycopg' in all /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/psycopg2/*.py files and to set PYTHONPATH=//usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/psycopg2 prior execution of the frozen binary. I found this only by playing around several days, there is NO documentation about that. The advices statically linking etc. given here are too superficial. Any more helful/concrete advices (outside of this thread) seem to cost money. I wanted and still want help to fix this by giving detailed reports. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16047> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
