py2sis problem with PyS60 1.3.8

**taowu** · 2006-08-17, 20:37

I am trying to compile a Python script to SIS file. I have Carbide C++ express running (i.e., compiled the helloworldbasic example), and followed the instructions in Py2SIS_3rdED_v0_1_README.txt.

The following error occurs when I try to compile as instructed (I copied the snake.py to the py2sis directory; the error is the same for my own script):
================================

I am using Python 2.4, and S60 3rd ED SDK MR2. The S: drive is subst'ed from C:\Symbian\9.1\S60_3rd_MR_2. My EPOCROOT is \ and PATH variable is:

Does anyone have similar issues? I would very much appreciate any suggestions!

Please verify that you can compile the "helloworldbasic" from command line and as a device target:

1) cd to "V:\S60Ex\helloworldbasic\group" (the drive might be different according to your subst-commands)

2) Give command:

Code:

V:\S60Ex\helloworldbasic\group>bldmake bldfiles
WARNING: Cannot determine the version of the RVCT Compiler.
WARNING: When building for ARMV5 platform Compiler RVCT2.2 or later is required.


V:\S60Ex\helloworldbasic\group>

3) Give command:

Code:

V:\S60Ex\helloworldbasic\group>abld build gcce urel
  make -r  -f "\EPOC32\BUILD\S60Ex\helloworldbasic\group\EXPORT.make"
....

This works if you get no error messages (warnings are ok) - if you get error messages please post those here.

(You might as well compile the "helloworldbasic" for your emulator, just give command "abld build winscw udeb". You should now have a "HelloWorld"-logo in your emulator (in folder "Installations"))

The proper output from py2sis should be:

Code:

V:\src\py2sis>python py2sis.py snake.py --uid=0x01234567 --sdk30 --caps="Network

Any suggestions?

It seems that there is a bug in the current "py2sis" or in the PyS60 3rdEd distribution.

A quick fix follows:

1) Add a file named "Python.rsg" to your subst'ed drive into folder "\Epoc32\include". (The full path is "C:\Symbian\9.1\S60_3rd\Epoc32\include" or in your case "C:\Symbian\9.1\S60_3rd_MR\Epoc32\include")

2) Input to this file the following lines:

Code:

I found the following steps would allow compilation:
1. Download the zip file for PyS60_1_3_8 for SDK, and extract to \.
2. Go to \Py138\src\py2sis\build, do "bldmake bldfiles" and "abld build gcce urel". (At this stage it needs the Python.rsg mentioned above)
3. Go to \Py138\src\py2sis, and repeat "python py2sis.py snake.py..." and it compiles.

So I guess py2sis.py requires some files that are generated by the build process in build\, which in turn requires files from the SDK zip file.

Thanks!

So, has anybody managed to get standalone programs working with self-signed keys? I've packaged simple test script (that only writes something to e:\data\) with py2sis, and then signed it with self-signing.

But no avail, all I get is system error (-2) at startup.

The UID is in unprotected range.

I am able to get standalone programs to work with self-signed keys.

Here are some things to check (currently using 3rdEd MR but it should work with the earlier 3rdEd also):

- Are you sure that all the needed libraries are imported in your wrapped script (I am sure you have this right but just checking)? Remember the script shell "import"-set is different from SIS-wrapped.

- We had a problem with certificate installers and updating those. You might have to format the device if you had SIS-certificate installers installed and you need to update those (this is just wild guess of your problem and might not have anything to do with self-signing - it took half a day for us to figure this one out).

This is right - In the example earlier in this thread I used incorrect UID allocation for _self-signing_ (i.e. I used devcerts). For self-signing, it looks like the UID needs to be from the unprotected range, see https://www.symbiansigned.com/app/page/uidfaq for the right range.

Finally got it running, had strange problem in my build script (I'll post details later).

However, the Option menu does not show in the application. I tried to package the python shell default.py, it had the same problem. The option/exit is visible, but pressing option does not pop up menu.

Maybe this problem is caused by the python.rsg. Is there a possibility that the constant defined above and the constant defined at the actual pys60 1.3.8 binary release mismatch?

Replicated this problem also (see SF defect #1548416). And yes, there is a possibility for definition mismatch - I will look into this. Thanks for pointing this out.

Maybe this problem is caused by the python.rsg. Is there a possibility that the constant defined above and the constant defined at the actual pys60 1.3.8 binary release mismatch?

The constants were different.

Here is another quick fix for "py2sis" on 3rdEd (the previous fix needs to be applied also):

1) open file "py2sis\templates_eka2\PyTest.rss.template" to a text editor

2) replace line #15:

Code:

NAME PYTE //XXX

with:

Code:

NAME PYTH //XXX

3) save the file

4) run "py2sis" again.

This should make the menu and the sub-menus to appear normally. Again, thanks for noticing this one (same goes for Jarno Seppänen for the SF defect filing).

This should be fixed for the next release.

Remove the py2sis\build and py2sis\temp before trying to rebuild.

Otsov, thanks for fast support, that did the trick.

Btw:
I had a really mysterious problem when devoping the stand-alone app. When I tried to run the program, it always terminated with System error (-2), before it did chance to get to execute default.py.

At one point this problem disappared, but then came back. I tried almost everything, made my own launchpad, etc, but no avail. Only when I re-installed the pys60 runtime the problem went away.

If I removed the default.py from installation package, I got System error (-1). This lead me to suspect that the problem was somewhere near CSPyInterpreter::RunScript (it returns KErrGeneral(-2) or KErrNotFound(-1)).

Anyway, I didn't get any farther on the bug hunt. If anyone else stumbles to this, please report here, so we can try to find out what caused this.
