I'm attempting to turn a short Python program that I wrote into an easily-distributable application file for OS X, using py2app. I made it through the py2app tutorial, but when I click on my application file the following dialogue is shown:
A Python runtime not could be located. You may need to install a framework build of Python, or edit the PyRuntimeLocations array in this application's Info.plist file. This is my first time building a piece of software, so apologies for any obvious missteps.
I'm not sure whether this is helpful, but clicking "Open Console" from that dialogue shows the following errors:
LaunchServices: Could not store lsd-identifiers file at /private/var/db/lsd/com.apple.lsdschemes.plist
launchservicesd[83]: SecTaskLoadEntitlements failed error=22
appleeventsd[53]: SecTaskLoadEntitlements failed error=22 11/27/16 7:29:19.787 PM
sharedfilelistd[307]: SecTaskLoadEntitlements failed error=22
I know that if py2app uses a "system" version of Python to produce an app, it won't include that Python in the distribution. However, entering $
which python in the terminal directs me to my anaconda installation, so that doesn't seem to be the issue.
This is my first time attempting to create a piece of software, so apologies in advance for any obvious missteps. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I've been banging my head on this all day.
