Final step of install Tesseract 4.0 on MacOS High Serria___make training___"Need to reconfigure project, so there are no errors"

[clzsa...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I am new to Tesseract 4.0. Very glad to see you guys are here. I am trying to follow the link below to complie Tesseract 4.0 on my Mac. However, I got the out put in the final "make training" step, which yields "Need to reconfigure project, so there are no errors". Did anybody have this same problem?

Also, when I run "tessearct -v", it generates:

➜  tesseract git:(master) tesseract -v

tesseract 3.05.02

 leptonica-1.76.0

 libgif 5.1.4 : libjpeg 9b : libpng 1.6.34 : libtiff 4.0.9 : zlib 1.2.11 : libwebp 0.5.2 : libopenjp2 2.3.0

It seems I still get version 3.05. 

Best,

Charlie

Don't know if it helps, but a couple of days ago I installed Tesseract 4 on macOS HighSierra using brew and this command:

brew install tesseract --HEAD

I had to symlink liblep to proper location (don't remember if it was per Tesseract per se, or it was for Tess4j though):

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/liblept.5.dylib /opt/local/lib/liblept.4.dylib

How did you install Tesseract on Mac?

Hi PSK, thanks for your reply. I was following the guide here to compile tesseract 4.0

https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/issues/1453

It said we cannot install 4.0 through brew install.

So I didn't know that 4.0 cannot be installed via brew so blindly I issued this command:

brew install tesseract --HEAD

and it installed 4.0 :) Why don't you just try.

Thanks a lot. I tried brew install tesseract --HEAD and I still got version 3.05.02

Does any one have this problem? Thanks again.

First try to:

brew update

then:

brew install tesseract --HEAD

I've just installed it on my private mac this way and tesseract is 4.0 (still beta though):

tesseract --version
tesseract 4.0.0-beta.3
 leptonica-1.76.0
  libjpeg 9c : libpng 1.6.35 : libtiff 4.0.9 : zlib 1.2.11
 Found AVX
 Found SSE

If this doesn't help, you may want to remove the old version of tesseract if this doesn't help.

As the last resort you may run:

brew upgrade

though, it may take hours to complete (it depends how much stuff you have installed thru brew)

Good luck :)

[PSK]

I've just spotted that brew did good job (pouring from HEAD-9ce4d05) on your machine.

I think you have an other version of Tesseract installed using other way that's interfering with brew version - be sure to remove the older one.

Good luck no2 :)

Fixed! Thank you so much. I have been stuck over here for 3 days. I found the 3.05.02 version was installed by anaconda. After conda remove tesseract, I get 4.0 version now. So cool! Thank you again.

I still get this error even I have brew upgrade and brew update

brew install tesseract --HEAD

Error: An exception occured within a child process:

  RuntimeError: /usr/local/opt/autoconf-archive not present or broken

Please reinstall autoconf-archive. Sorry :(

Any hints?
