py2exe: exe not launching

I wrote a GUI using Tkinter in python. Program works fine when I launch it via .py When I use py2exe, it creates a .exe file but when I try to run it, nothing happens. I also don't see any logs so it is very hard to debug this.

My setup.py looks as such:

from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe, sys, os

sys.argv.append('py2exe')

setup(
    options = {'py2exe': {'bundle_files': 1, 'compressed': True}},
    windows = [{'script': "mainApp.py"}],
    zipfile = None,
)

I am using python 2.7 on Windows machine.

I have a python script using Tkinter and can compile it using pyinstaller with the following command:

C:\Python27\Scripts\pyinstaller.exe --windowed --distpath "C:\test" script.py

To run the program:

C:\test\script.exe
