That changed the error to: Error openning data file /usr/local/share/tessdata/eng.traineddata
now I go looking for /usr/local/share/tessdata/eng.traineddata and it isn't there. I did a file search for eng.* and didn't find it in any other location. I might create an empty file and see what happens. I'll do that a little later as I have to be away for an hour or so.
