AttributeError: module 'pytesseract' has no attribute 'pytesseract'

[bryan lee]

Hi All, 

Help needed, i know this is very basic as i am not able to continue from here. 

I was trying to use pytesseract.

Below is what i have done:

I am using anaconda --> Jupyter notebook --> Python 3.6

First i install pytesseract

!conda install -c jim-hart pytesseract

Then i install tesseract-ocr-setup-3.02.02.exe  --> (via url: https://osdn.net/projects/sfnet_tesseract-ocr-alt/downloads/tesseract-ocr-setup-3.02.02.exe/) and install

Then i follow:

try:
    import Image
except ImportError:
    from PIL import Image
import pytesseract

pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract'

Error i get as below:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
AttributeError                            Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-10-47d2996c02fd> in <module>()
----> 1 pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract'

AttributeError: module 'pytesseract' has no attribute 'pytesseract'

Help needed.

Try inserting this below line, before your pytesseract code--

    pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = r"path to your pytesseract executabl file"

Also put Tesseract and Pytesseract path in the environment variables
