Only when creating an EXE with pyinstaller, 'urlopen error' is found and the 'swagger_spec_validator' folder can not be found.

[yanyancyan]

Running with source code on windows is fine.
ex. python hoge.py

However, if you make EXE with pyinstaller and execute it, the following error will be returned.
Even if you make EXE on windows 7, 8.1, or 10, you get an error.

Please tell me how to solve this problem.

pyinstaller-3.3.1-py3.5 and pyinstaller-3.4dev

I'm having the same issue. I'm guessing it's something you have to include with the installation but I don't know what.

Hey everyone, I found the same issue. I was running this in a virtualenv, so I'll share my solution in this scope.

The code I executed to generate the exe was: pyinstaller myfile.py --onedir. With this, instead of packaging everything into a single file, it creates an EXE with the libraries in a folder. Once inside the folder that was created, if I executed the EXE it would throw the same error.

The solution I found was: I went to [myVirtualEnv]/Lib/site-packages/swagger_spec_validator and copied that folder. I pasted it into the folder that was generated by pyinstaller, and it worked as expected!

Good luck!

--collect-data=swagger_spec_validator should be all you need.
