不能运行pytesseract？

Question

I'm trying to use pytesseract in a python script, but I keep getting the same error upon importing it. To check it was from pytesseract and not from something else, I typed pytesseract directly into my command line, and got this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/pytesseract", line 7, in <module>
from pytesseract.pytesseract import main
File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/pytesseract/__init__.py", line 
1, in <module>
from .pytesseract import (
File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/pytesseract/pytesseract.py", line 9, in <module>
import Image
File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 27, in <module>
from . import VERSION, PILLOW_VERSION, _plugins
ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package

But I know it's installed correctly, because when I try pip install pytesseract --user , I get back:

Requirement already satisfied: pytesseract in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
Requirement already satisfied: Pillow in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages (from pytesseract)

I also already have tesseract installed, which I know because typing tesseract into my command line gives me all its information. Does anyone know what's wrong?

Answer 1

1. Try to install dependency packages of tesseract and import Image and Pillow packages
2. Or instead of pip install pytesseract, Download pytesseract package from online https://pypi.org/project/pytesseract/ and install it
