Cannot find module cv2 when using OpenCV [duplicate]

stackoverflow.com › questions › 19876079 › cannot-find-module-cv2-when-using-opencv

First do run these commands inside Terminal/CMD:

conda update anaconda-navigator  
conda update navigator-updater

Then the issue for the instruction below will be resolved

For windows if you have anaconda installed, you can simply do

pip install opencv-python

or

conda install -c https://conda.binstar.org/menpo opencv

if you are on linux you can do :

pip install opencv-python

or

conda install opencv

Link1 Link2

For python3.5+ check these links : Link3 , Link4

Update:
if you use anaconda, you may simply use this as well (and hence don't need to add menpo channel):

conda install -c conda-forge opencv

This happens when python cannot refer to your default site-packages folder where you have kept the required python files or libraries

Add these lines in the code:

import sys

sys.path.append('/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages')

or before running the python command in bash move to /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages directory. This is a work around if you don't want to add any thing to the code.

How do I fix the issue moduleNotFoundError: No module named 'cv2' ?

it just seems that u are missing open cv all u need to do is install that it may be different depending on what u are using if u are using automatics repo, then it will probably be done from within the venv u can manually activate it from in cmd (cmd does not open in the folder by default so cd Your/StableDiffusion/path/here) by opening the activate.bat file found in stable-diffusion-webui (root) root\venv\Scripts\activate.batthen u will need to run pip install opencv-python else just install it from cmd with the same command pip install opencv-python More on reddit.com
