I have never used pyinstaller before and I’m running into problems building an executable with all the required sub-modules.

My app structure looks like this

--main_app
   --ui_app.py (PYQT6) 
   --core.py
   --modules 
     -- module_a.py
     -- module_b.py
     -- truncated
  --utilities  
    -- module_a.py
    -- module_b.py
    -- truncated

I build the pyinstaller application with the following command:

pyinstaller –onefile –name “Another Test” –upx-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/upx/4.1.0/bin
–paths=/Users/my_name/Python_Projects/my_project_name/main_app/modules/
–paths=/Users/my_name/Python_Projects/my_project_name/main_app/utilities/
–paths=/Users/my_name/Python_Projects/my_project_name/main_app/core.py
–windowed main_app/ui_app.py

When I try to run the application I receive warnings about modules and utilities not being found.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main_app/ui_app.py", line 48, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'modules'
[43895] Failed to execute script 'ui_app' due to unhandled exception: No module named 'modules'
[43895] Traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main_app/ui_app.py", line 48, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'modules'

My import paths in ui_app.py look like this:

from modules.file_handling import FileImporter, DataExporter
from modules.query_threaded import QueryRunnable, QueryResultHandler
from utilities.hover_buttons import HoverButton
from utilities.custom_dialogs import CustomDialog

How can I modify the pyinstaller command or my code to fix the module not found warnings?
