python - pyinstaller No module named pyinstaller

Question

I have 2 python versions installed under my mac osx sierra: python 3.5 python 2.7

I installed pyinstaller under python3.5 with this command:

python3.5 -m pip install pyinstaller

If I run again the same command I'm getting:

Requirement already satisfied: pyinstaller in ./lib/python3.5/site-packages Requirement already satisfied: setuptools in ./lib/python3.5/site-packages (from pyinstaller)

That to me means that is is installed under python 3.5 and ready to be used.

When I run this command:

python3.5 -m pyinstaller mypython35script.py

I'm getting: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin/python3.5: No module named pyinstaller

why? What I'm doing wrong?

Cheers D.

Answer 1

Their package name have caps in it (not sure if it's very PEP8 tho..). This should work if you can't find the pyinstaller executable script:

python -m PyInstaller your_script.py
