py2exe and urllib(2) errors

[Mike Zupan]

I had some problems with urllib and py2exe under pyton2.3. I works fine
until i try to use the exe file.

Here is the error

Error: 1
LookupError Exception in Tk callback
Function: <bound method MainWindow.selectDir of <__main__.MainWindow
instance
at 0x00DF4058>> (type: <type 'instancemethod'>)

LookupError: no codec search functions registered: can't find encoding
Here is the section of code that produces the error

urllib.urlretrieve(imageURL, saveFile)

imageURL and saveFile are correct
Here is my setup.py file

# setup.py
from distutils.core import setup

import py2exe

setup(
scripts=["art.py"]
)
and here is my batch file

c:\python23\python setup.py py2exe -pPIL --packages=encodings
Thanks

(From the py2exe homepage:
http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/py2exe/)
...if your exe-file reports errors like LookupError: no codec search
functions registered: can't find encoding or LookupError: unknown encoding,
you should advise py2exe to include this package with the '--packages
encodings' command line option.

Google turns up information very quickly.

this was my command line

c:\python23\python setup.py py2exe -pPIL --packages=encodings

it was using py2exe 4.2. I also tried with no = to get the same results
