use cx_freeze with mysql-connector

Question

I'm trying to make an exe program from a fully functional python 3.4 script, but I can't embed the dependencies about official mysql connector. This is a sample code with the problem:

import mysql.connector
from settings import *

connLocal  = mysql.connector.connect( host   =  DB_CRM_HOST,
                                      user   =  DB_CRM_USER,
                                      passwd =  DB_CRM_PASS,
                                      db     =  DB_CRM_DB )
cursorLocal = connLocal.cursor ()
sqlStr = "SELECT * FROM Users"
cursorLocal.execute( sqlStr)
for row in  cursorLocal.fetchall():
    print(row)

and this is my setup script:

'''script per il setup'''
import sys
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable

EXCLUDES = ['_ssl',  # Exclude _ssl
            'pyreadline', 'difflib', 'doctest', 'locale',
            'optparse', 'pickle', 'calendar']  # Exclude standard library
PACKAGES = []
INCLUDES = []
SCRIPT_NAME = "sync_crm2web.py"
EXE_NAME = "sync_crm2web.exe"
PRJ_NAME = "sync_crm2web"
VERSION = 1.0

                     "path": sys.path,

                     'include_in_shared_zip':True,
                     'optimize':2,}

EXE = Executable(script=SCRIPT_NAME,
                 base=BASE,
                 compress=True,
                 targetDir="dist",
                 targetName=EXE_NAME,
                 initScript=None,
                 copyDependentFiles=True,
                 appendScriptToExe=True,
                 appendScriptToLibrary=False,
)

setup(name=PRJ_NAME,
      version=VERSION,
      author=AUTHOR,
      description=DESCRIPTION,
      options={"build_exe": BUILD_EXE_OPTIONS},
      executables=[EXE])

also trying forcing PACKAGES = [], INCLUDES = [] with combination of mysql, mysql-connector, mysql.connector seem not to work.

I always obtain:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python34\lib\site-packages\cx_Freeze\initscripts\Console.py", line 27, in <module>
    exec(code, m.__dict__)

Can someone help me? full cx_freeze log here http://pastebin.com/S3TMzAnB

When you say it doesn't work, please describe what goes wrong, e.g. what errors you see. Also, the log from freezing might have useful information - can you put that into a pastebin and give a link? — Thomas K, Jun 30 '14 at 16:56

Solved using input from Cx-Freeze Error - Python 34 - www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs so I've installed cx_Freeze from this installer and not from PIP.

After that I've commented the needed _ssl module and place all library ('build_exe' property) in the same folder of the executable.

EXCLUDES = [#'_ssl',  # !!!! COMMENTED !!!!
