I am using Windows 8.1 and Cygwin64 in order to run Tesseract 3.04.
Running the following command:
tesseract arbeitsunfaehigkeit.hausarzt.exp0.jpg arbeitsunfaehigkeit
batch.nochop makebox
results in the following output:
Tesseract Open Source OCR Engine v3.04.00 with Leptonica
read_params_file: Can't open makebox
And this is after I fixed the output:
Tesseract Open Source OCR Engine v3.04.00 with Leptonica
Error opening data file
C:\DEV\tesseract\Tesseract-OCR\tessdata/eng.traineddata
Please make sure the TESSDATA_PREFIX environment variable is set to the
parent directory of your "tessdata" directory.
Failed loading language 'eng'
Tesseract couldn't load any languages!
Could not initialize tesseract.
Using the following line in .bash_profile:
export TESSDATA_PREFIX="/cygdrive/c/DEV/cygwin64/usr/share/tessdata/"
It seems to be a Cygwin64 issue because using Windows command line (added
C:\DEV\cygwin64\bin to PATH and setting TESSDATA_PREFIX to
C:\DEV\cygwin64\usr\share\tessdata) it works nicely.
