Thanks Dody.  The error was because I did not deploy Lib and the types module 
is in Lib.

The types module is part of the Python standard library - you only need to deploy it if you use it.

You can compile your Python file and libraries into an executable / assemblies using the Pyc compiler sample - which is available for download on the the IronPython codeplex site. There are some caveats about its use; you will need to add references to any assemblies you import from and some users have reported losing sys.argv when they compile their main executable. In this case it is better to *not* compile your main script, or to create a custom executable in C# which creates the Python engine and executes your main script but doing things like setting up sys.argv and setting the engine search paths.

All the best,

I can see that I can successfully deploy by copying the whole of IronPython.
It would be neater to turn the script(s) into an exe and deploy that. I have only found IPy 1.0 doco on this and the 1.0 doco did not work on 2.0.

Does anyone know of good IPy 2.0 doco on how to turn IPy scripts into an exe?

Thanks Dody, thanks all.

Kyle

1. You will need to deploy all the lib

* ipy.exe
* IronPython.dll
* IronPython.Modules.dll
* Microsoft.Scripting.Core.dll
* Microsoft.Scripting.dll
* Microsoft.Scripting.ExtensionAttribute.dll

The last three dlls are DLR which IP 2.0 relies on.

I never use ipy to deploy application so I'm not sure about the error
you get. It looks like a search path problem. Run ipy.exe in
interactive mode and - I think  - type in dir(type) to check whether
ipy has access to the types you need.

Hi Dody,

Fair question :)

Just a script run from the Windows scheduler that reads a database and writes 
some files.

What kind of application are you trying to deploy?  ASP.Net with IP
support? Application with hosted IP? IP scripts?

Hi all,

My understanding of http://www.ironpython.info/index.php/Deployment is that
when deploying to Windows the following need to be deployed:
* .NET 2.0 or 3.0 installed
* ipy.exe
* IronPython.dll
* IronMath.dll

I thought the IPy 2.0 equiv might be to copy:
* ipy.exe
* IronPython.dll
* IronPython.Modules.dll
* Microsoft.Scripting.Core.dll
* Microsoft.Scripting.dll
* Microsoft.Scripting.ExtensionAttribute.dll

but if I then run test.py which imports types I get
C:\test>ipy.exe test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 1, in test.py
ImportError: No module named types
C:\test>

Questions:

1. Do I need to deploy all of Lib?

2. Where should I have been reading about this (sorry).

Thanks all.

Regards,
Kyle
