ImportError: No module named pytesseract

Question

I was following this guide https://realpython.com/blog/python/setting-up-a-simple-ocr-server/ and got to the part where I run cli.py python flask_server/cli.py

Answer 1

I had the same error. My solution is

$ pip3 install pytesseract

since I have python 2 and python 3 installed together.
