ImportError: No module named cv2 in caffe installed in ubuntu16.04

I installed caffe from this site on Ubuntu 16.04. python 2.7 is default and there is python 3.5.2 on system,too. I installed apollocaffe too. When I was trying to run my code, an error occured:

ImportError: No module named cv2

I did execute this code: sudo apt-get install -y libopencv-dev as in installation guide is said.

and in Makefile.config I uncommented the line about python3. I viewed the dist-packages in python3.5 and it is empty.

what should I do??? I appreciate any help.

Solution

  • I found a workaround for my case:

    pip install opencv-python

    and now

    import cv2

    works.
