I have made a python script that used tabula.read_pdf. After I convert it to an executable file, java.exe window keeps popping up when running tabula.read_pdf. Other threads indicate that I should use javaw.exe instead of java.exe. But how do I select this ?
I use auto-py-to-exe to make the executable file for my python script.
Python tabula read_pdf opens java console window In this question they talk about changing i name in a wrapper file.
(Just copying my answer from the post you linked above) I was running into a similar issue and couldn't really find the wrapper.py. After some tinkering around I found a similar workaround:
Within the directory where tabula is installed "...\Lib\site-packages\tabula" edit the "io.py" file. In the "_run" function just change the "args" variable to use "javaw" instead of "java".
I was able to hide the java console when my .exe file ran this way. I hope this helps someone in the future.
