Pyinstaller throwing error No such file or directory

I have written a simple python file where I am trying to read a text file and writing some log to a output file. Using pyinstaller I have created a .exe file. But when I am executing the that .exe file it is throwing the following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 31, in <module>
  File "<string>", line 15, in process_data
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'input1.txt'
mytest returned -1

Here is my code.

import re
import sys
import mytest2

def process_data(name, course):

    tmp = sys.stdout
    sys.stdout = open("out11.txt", 'w')

    if re.search("^ank", name):
        print "Yes I am here"
    else:
        print "No no wrong door"

    fr = open("input1.txt", "r")
    lines = fr.readlines()
    fr.close()

    print "Printing from input file.."
    for line in lines:
        print line.strip()

    sys.stdout.close()
    sys.stdout = tmp


if __name__ == "__main__":
    arg1 = sys.argv[1]
    arg2 = sys.argv[2]

    process_data(arg1, arg2)

Can somebody tell me how to fix this one. I am doing this in Windows.

I also want to know whether this executable will work in all windows os like win 8, 8.1, 10 etc.

Either input1.txt is not in the folder where you have the .exe, or the .exe expects you to have input1.txt packaged into it - that onefile/singlefile option in pyinstaller.
