Hey,
I have a problem with the Tess4J node. Can somebody please help?
The error is:
ERROR NativeLibBundleActivator /Applications/KNIME 4.3.0.app/Contents/Eclipse/plugins/org.knime.knip.tess4j.bin.macosx.amd64_1.3.3.v201807091457/lib/macosx/amd64/libtesseract.3.dylib: dlopen(/Applications/KNIME 4.3.0.app/Contents/Eclipse/plugins/org.knime.knip.tess4j.bin.macosx.amd64_1.3.3.v201807091457/lib/macosx/amd64/libtesseract.3.dylib, 1): Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/liblept.4.dylib

Hi @dliebe,
I have a Mac and could try, but I have no idea about image processing. Could you post a simple, self-contained example workflow that I could try?
Kind regards,
Alexander
Hi Dominique,
I could reproduce the problem, but unfortunately I could not fix it. Our team is now checking if a programmer can fix it. I will let you know if we do!
Kind regards,
Alexander
Hi Dominique,
Unfortunately there is no news about this issue. I have commented on our internal ticket again to push it. Let’s hope our devs get around to do this soon!
Kind regards,
Alexander
Hi @evanchoong,
Unfortunately not. The node is part of a community contribution that our developers have “inherited”, it seems. Now it is quite time consuming to make changes to foreign code. Our developers tell me that the node may be replaced by a Python-based one in the future, as by summer we want to support native KNIME nodes written in Python and there is a package for Tesseract in Python: Tesseract OCR in Python with Pytesseract & OpenCV. Maybe you can already get it to work with our Python Script node?
Kind regards,
Alexander
