The problem is a "conflict" between the firefox_profile module and
py2exe. firefox_profile is attempting to open
'C:\\Users\\ferdinand\\Desktop\\Landmark_Ops\\dist\\library.zip\\selenium\\webdriver\\firefox\\webdriver.xpi'
as a regular file (a .xpi file is a .zip file, hence the fact zipfile
itself is throwing the error), but that file doesn't exist as a regular
file.
You probably need to look into the source of firefox_profile and see if
you can tell it where the .xpi file lives. Then you would take
advantage of py2exe's "data_files" option to arrange for the .xpi file
to be packaged as a regular file, then tell firefox_profile where that
location is.

Hi List,
My environment: Win 7 Professional 64-bit, Python 2.7 64-bit and
appropriate 64-bit libraries installed over that.
I downloaded the 64-bit py2exe package. Though I did not specifically
download the Distutils package, I guess I have it from having installed
3rd party Python libraries.
I'm trying to create a py2exe executable of a script that automates
Firefox using selenium webdriver.
The script also uses a couple of other libraries including the python
imaging library and pywin32.
When I try to run the generated exe I get the following traceback: (the
1st 2 lines after the script starts are print statement output)
##-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I checked the zip folder mentioned in the path and it is missing the
webdriver.xpi file.
I manually added the missing file into the zip folder from a similar
path in my python setup, but it still doesn't work.
The start of the traceback ( line 220, in <module> ) refers to the line
where I 1st instantiate the Firefox() selenium webdriver automation object.
I had earlier tried the same with pyinstaller and faced a similar kind
of issue with the same webdriver.xpi file. It that case, pyinstaller
used some other file format (not zip) and I was not able to edit that file.
The script works quite ok in the normal python environment.
Any pointers?
Thanks,
Ferdi
