Error - OcropusFileNotFound default.cmodel

[jbest]

I'm trying to get the current code (0.5) in the repository to install and successfully recognize text. 

When I use the command "ocropus 0003.png" I get some success but ultimately the error is "ocrolib.common.OcropusFileNotFound: <OcropusFileNotFound default.cmodel>

exit 1"

Today is my first attempt to getting OCRopus installed so maybe something didn't build correctly but I saw no obvious errors. I'm on Ubuntu 11.10.

Is default.cmodel something that was supposed to be installed or do I have to generate that through training?

Thanks for any assistance,

Jason

Sorry, disregard this question. I've found at least a partial solution. 

First I discovered that I only ran ocroinst install and should have also run ocroinst packages and ocroinst dl.

The dl portion is still in process but it appears that default.cmodel won't be installed as only the following files are available in that directory:

case.fst.bz2

none.fst.bz2

uw3unlv-240-4-60-g2.cmodel.bz2

uw3unlv-240-8-40-nogeo.cmodel.bz2

I found a copy (maybe outdated?) of default.cmodel at:

http://code.google.com/p/ocropus/source/browse/data/?repo=ocropy&r=250ebe910ebc149e6bca09827d49dc20d352a8ed

Character recognition is working now I'm getting other errors at the moment (ImportError: cannot import name fstutils

) but I'll try to work though that to see if I missed anything else in the install and build process.

My additional problems are the same as issue 322 (http://code.google.com/p/ocropus/issues/detail?id=322)

Jason,

how exactly did you find out that you needed to run ocroinst packages
and ocroinst dl? I'm currently trying to get started using Ocropus and
find it very cumbersome. Did you find any installation instructions
apart from the install transcript on ocropus.org and the video on
YouTube? Apparently both don't quite match the current version of
Ocropus.
Did you make further progress? Are you successfully using Ocropus now?
Can you recommend any resources that helped you?

Cheers,
Stefan

If you install ocropus 0.5, you need to download and install the character recognition models explicitly using

    ocroinst dl
