Resolving the "Cannot find module cv2" Error with OpenCV

The issue encountered when attempting to import cv2 in a Python program on Raspberry Pi stems from a path misconfiguration. Despite having successfully installed OpenCV version 2.4.5 using a specific installation script, the program cannot locate the cv2 module at runtime.

To address this problem, execute the following commands in Terminal/CMD:

conda update anaconda-navigator
conda update navigator-updater

As an alternative, consider the following installation instructions to resolve the issue:

For Windows (with Anaconda):

pip install opencv-python

For Windows (without Anaconda):

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

For Linux:

pip install opencv-python

For Linux (alternative):

conda install opencv

Update:

If using Anaconda, the following command can also be used instead of adding the menpo channel:

conda install -c conda-forge opencv
