There are a lot of questions about the error "tesseract is not installed or it's not in your PATH", I did not solve though.

I am using macOS and from the terminal I tried:

  1. pip install pytesseract
  2. brew install tesseract

and finally on my script:

from pytesseract import image_to_string

and then:

pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = r'<path>'

for path I wrote in the terminal: "brew list tesseract" and I got a list of path:

  • /usr/local/Cellar/tesseract/5.2.0/bin/tesseract
  • /usr/local/Cellar/tesseract/5.2.0/include/tesseract/ (12 files)
  • /usr/local/Cellar/tesseract/5.2.0/lib/libtesseract.5.dylib
  • /usr/local/Cellar/tesseract/5.2.0/lib/pkgconfig/tesseract.pc
  • /usr/local/Cellar/tesseract/5.2.0/lib/ (2 other files)
  • /usr/local/Cellar/tesseract/5.2.0/share/tessdata/ (35 files)

I used the first one and also "/usr/local/bin/tesseract" which I obtained writing on the terminal "which tesseract".

Well, no one of these step worked, I still get the error message. Any solution?
