I am having an issue with my Raspberry Pi when using pytesseract

Question

I have installed it properly with this tutorial: "https://circuitdigest.com/microcontroller-projects/optical-character-recognition-ocr-using-tesseract-on-raspberry-pi". When I write in the command line tesseract image.png stdout it works. But when running the following script:

 import pytesseract 
 from PIL import Image 

 image=Image.open('image.png')
 text=pytesseract.image_to_string(img, config='') 
 print(text)

It replies:

Error on line 1
ImportError: No module named tesseract

Did you do `pip install pytesseract`? Are you using the default python2.7 interpreter or the python3 one? — olinox14, Jun 25 '19 at 15:15
Yes, I did pip install pytesseract and I'm using the default python 2.7. — Vlăduţ Deak, Jun 25 '19 at 15:18

I would look at this perhaps when it was installed it defaulted to your python3 path try it with python3 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33401767/importerror-no-module-named-pytesseract — smitty_werbenjagermanjensen, Jun 25 '19 at 15:27

you have to do that: pip install pytesseract, if the problem persists try this (only if you use Windows), add the environmental path var to the Tesseract folder like this 1, you have also to change the var on line 5 img -> image
