I have installed it properly with this tutorial: "https://circuitdigest.com/microcontroller-projects/optical-character-recognition-ocr-using-tesseract-on-raspberry-pi". When I write in the command line tesseract image.png stdout it works. But when running the following script:

 import pytesseract 
 from PIL import Image 

 image=Image.open('image.png')
 text=pytesseract.image_to_string(img, config='') 
 print(text)

It replies:

Error on line 1
ImportError: No module named tesseract

Did you do `pip install pytesseract`? Are you using the default python2.7 interpreter or the python3 one? – olinox14 Jun 25 '19 at 15:15
Yes, I did pip install pytesseract and I'm using the default python 2.7. – Vlăduţ Deak Jun 25 '19 at 15:18
Have you already looked at this? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42369652/no-module-named-tesseract – olinox14 Jun 25 '19 at 15:25
I would look at this perhaps when it was installed it defaulted to your python3 path try it with python3 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33401767/importerror-no-module-named-pytesseract – smitty_werbenjagermanjensen Jun 25 '19 at 15:27
