Hi,
I am working on OpenKM 6.2 on windows.
I have downloaded the tesseract 3.01v for text extraction from the images. From the command line it's working fine.
Configured the system.ocr property to "D:\Venu\Tesseract Images\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe ${fileIn} ${fileOut}"
But it's not working.

When I uploaded the image file ,Found the log message as below

Code: Select all

Can you tell the path of the files, where the text extracted exactly.

If we want to use tesseract text extractors on images what steps do we need to follow.

Depending the image type you need to install image magick ( it's needed by tesseract ). I suggest you try tesseract from command line with same image. Remember that openkm has a queue extraction ( you can see at administration -> stats -> extraction queue ), and if you make a database select you can see the extract text at table OKM_NODE_BASE;

Thanks for your reply.

I tried with the same image from the command line and able get the output.
But when I tried to access the stats and scripts tab it is showing following exception.

You also have to change the value in administration confugration to use tesseract3.ocr.

Please note the picture below

PostPosted:**Fri Jan 11, 2013 10:24 am**

Yes..I have changed the value and tried with the following system.ocr property values.

D:\Venu\Tesseract Images\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe ${fileIn} ${fileOut}
D:\Venu\Tesseract Images\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe

It showing the error in the path and attached is the screen shot.

When I uploaded a sample .tiff and .png images, found the log as below

I tried these two images from the tesseract terminal and I am able to see the output(but not accurately).

And also I tried to use cuneiForm open ocr with
system.ocr="D:\Venu\CuneiForm"
System.ocr=D:\Venu\CuneiForm\face.exe"
system.ocr="D:\Venu\CuneiForm\Face.exe ${fileIn} -o ${fileOut}"

the value I used for this is "com.openkm.extractor.CuneiformTextExtractor "

Its validating the path correctly but I not able to find anything in the log.

Is there any way to see the extracted text (like extrcted.txt files) and my stats tab is not working as I attached in the previous post.

The issue is the space in the path...

try removing the space in the path (Tesseract Images to Tesseract_Images or similar..)

PostPosted:**Sat Jan 12, 2013 6:06 pm**

I'm do not sire if cuneiform can be executed from terminal ? because when you execute always appearing a windows application I'm not sure be able to execute only as a terminal command.

Thanks for your reply,

Now the path is detected correctly, but I don't know how to see the functionality of the tesseract in openkm whether it is working or not(included com.openkm.extractor.Tesseract3TextExtractor).

I uploaded a sample .tiff document to see the output and I found the following lines in the tomcat log.

yes jllort,

I have executed from the cuneiForm windows application(not from the terminal) and it's working fine.

Your answer is not clear to me, the question is; have you tested tesseract in command line ? first is necessary discard that in command line all is going right. Then we can focus in OpenKM.

PostPosted:**Thu Jan 17, 2013 4:54 am**

Hi Jllort,

Yes I have tested the images from the tesseract command line and its working fine.

PostPosted:**Fri Jan 18, 2013 7:12 pm**

go to database query and execute:

Code: Select all

SELECT NDC_TEXT FROM OKM_NODE_DOCUMENT where NBS_UUID='fae64e67-b4dc-422b-bd12-a087a7faa6f1';

which is the value of NDC_TEXT ?

PostPosted:**Sun Jan 20, 2013 6:29 am**

Thanks Jllort,

Now I am able to see the extracted content in the tables. I tried with Openkm 5.1.10 version on windows 7 to see the OCR functionality with tesseract, working fine and also
I am able to see the extracted text files with the content(extracted content).

But I want to see the extracted text from the images(tiff/png/pdf), checked the tables of the images and the values of the images (NDC_TEXT values) are null.
Tried from the tesseract terminal with the same images which I have uploaded and it's working fine.

For your Information I have executed a workflow and deleted(process definition) may be that was the reason to get this exception(I don't know why the workflow servlet is executing automatically when uploading a document).

Can you tell me how to resolve this.

PostPosted:**Sun Jan 20, 2013 6:20 pm**

You're using 6.2.2 community or trial ? because this kind of logs with this packages are strange to me

com.openkm.d.m

In log4j.properties file add this line
log4j.logger.com.openkm.extractor=DEBUG

PostPosted:**Tue Jan 22, 2013 4:33 am**

I am using OpenKM 6.2.4 trial version on windows 7 and I added the line to log4j.properties file, nothing found new in the log.

PostPosted:**Thu Jan 24, 2013 4:06 pm**

I do not know which could be the cause, but be sure on windows is running correctly it, because we have some customers in windows and tesseract ocr configured. Anyway is this critical test to you I suggest contact with us at http://www.openkm.com/en/contact.html and we'll try to help you on more direct way ( indicate the post url )
