Hi,
i write to a python code that use tesseract to extract English and German words. It works well. i tried to use it on Docker but i had this error:
Failed loading language 'eng' Tesseract couldn't load any languages! Could not initialize tesseract.
Failed loading language 'deu' Tesseract couldn't load any languages! Could not initialize tesseract.

this is what i use :
text = pytesseract.image_to_string(imm,config='--psm 11 --oem 1 --tessdata-dir "C:\Program Files\Tesseract-OCR\tessdata" ',lang='deu+eng')
in the requirments.txt i installed pytesseract and tesseract then i used this commad : RUN apt-get update && apt-get install tesseract-ocr -y
But it didnt work
Can you help me ?

Hi

I think you are using a Windows config on a linux docker. This might be the cause of your issue.

Let us know if this is the case.

Good luck

Alejandro
