Hi Dave, the simplest solution is surely to use web2py from source - and it's even better on py3 if possible.
If you're stick with the frozen app (apart from my simple guide on this at https://github.com/nicozanf/web2py-pyinstaller/blob/master/HOWTO-modules.md), I don't have any special advise - you have to try all the possibilities... Also, check what happens if you try to import the module from the python shell of web2py; maybe you'be a clearer traceback. Unfortunately the traceback above does not help me in understanding the issue. But it seems to be similar to this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63123335/distutils-spawn-not-available-unless-imported , maybe you could follow their advices.
