As per your message above
The files are in /usr/local/share/tessdata/
but program is looking for them at /usr/local/share/
you can set TESSDATA_PREFIX and try
OR
specify the directory as part of the command line. I have found that to be
the easiest way, specially when using/comparing diff kinds of traineddata
(fast, best, legacy ...)
example script below
-------
#!/bin/bash
img_files=$(ls ./Cap*.png)
for img_file in ${img_files}; do
echo "****************************" ${img_file}
"**********************************"
time tesseract --tessdata-dir /mnt/c/Users/User/shree/tessdata_best/
${img_file} ${img_file%.*}-eng-best --oem 1 --psm 6 -l eng
time tesseract --tessdata-dir /mnt/c/Users/User/shree/tessdata_fast/
${img_file} ${img_file%.*}-eng-fast --oem 1 --psm 6 -l eng
time tesseract --tessdata-dir /mnt/c/Users/User/shree/tessdata/
${img_file} ${img_file%.*}-engplus --oem 1 --psm 6 -l engplus
done
