I am trying to package a kivy application for Windows, and after following the instructions in the Kivy website for the example TouchTracer app, I get an ImportError: No Module named ConfigParser message when trying to open the .exe file in the dist folder.

I am running Python 2.7.11 and kivy 1.9.1.

Also, while executing the command python -m PyInstaller..., the output includes a line that says:

12612 WARNING: Attempted to add Python module twice with different upper/lowercases: ConfigParser

Below is the traceback printed when attempting to open the .exe file.

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "C:\Users\acasall1\Desktop\TouchApp\demo\touchtracer\main.py", line 22,

I had the same problem for my kivy application, and I found an ad hoc solution. The error comes from the line "import kivy", so uncomment it and the next line "kivy.require('1.0.6')". There lines are unnecessary if your kivy has proper version.
