build opencv from source: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cv2'

Question

I have built OpenCV from source. I follow this link here.

But when I try to import cv2, I get the following:

import cv2
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cv2'

I am new to opencv. Please help me with this.

I tried **sudo apt-get install python-opencv**. but not working!! — Mass17, Oct 28 '20 at 20:30

Give us more details on what system you're using

Try adding this to your ~/.bashrc export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH
