[papisilv]

• face_recognition version:current?
• Python version:python 3
• Operating System:Ubuntu 16
  I get an error telling me pictures are not foun, im running the code called ' find_faces_in_picture.py '
  I installed face_recognition , i have dlib, Cmake, open cv also, and clone(downloaded) the whole repository .
  Could it be an installing error? thank you if more info require just let me know

''Could it be that is running it on python2.7 instead of 3? I currently use ATOM for python.''

The error is that it can't find the file obama.jpg. Is there an obama.jpg file in the folder from where you are running the example?

[papisilv]

Yes I’m in the example folder where all the .py and images are , there is an image name obama.jpg my guess is the obama.jpg needs to be somewhere else

[ageitgey]

It depends on how you run the code. The working folder is the folder you ran the code from. How exactly did you run the code?

[papisilv]

The folder looks like this
-example(folder)
///-find_faces_in_picture.py
///-(the rest of the archives face_distance .py etc..)
///-obama.jpg
///-(more images ,obama320,Biden etc)
///-:knn_examples(folder)
I run th code on atom use the shortcut ctrl+shif+B or run in the terminal in the folder as ‘python find_faces_in_picture.py’

[ageitgey]

I'm not sure how your system is configured. But you could just edit the find_faces_in_picture.py script and replace the reference to obama.jpg in the script with /home/papi/Documents/face_recognition-master/examples/obama.jpg so there's no chance it won't be able to find it.

[papisilv]

So basically edit the code like this
image =face_recognition.load_image_file ("../home/papi/Documents/face_recognition-master/examples/obama.jpg")
Right?

[ageitgey]

no dots at the beginning of the filename

Thank you, but I still get an error

I'm getting this error as well. Did you find a solution?

Use the jupiter notebook you will get.

[renatocesargarcia]

jupyter notebook

[tchasse95]

you need to navigate to the folder containing the file using the bash

for example
cd Desktop
cd face_recognition
cd examples
python3 face_recognition.py
