Installing python-cv from

Question

I am following the installation process stated here. I am stuck on step 7; I get an ImportError stating:

"RuntimeError: module compiled against API version 9 but this version of numpy is 7
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>

import cv2
ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import"

In the instructions it recommends me to install the latest version of opencv, so as trial and error i tried an earlier model to see what would happen...i get the same thing -_-.

Could anyone point to me what I'm doing wrong, if there are no feasible solutions, is there a more stable process of doing this

Thanks in advance.

Someone experienced a similar error here. Make sure your numpy is up to date and don't forget to change the path to the new bin directory in your environment variable.

Thanks for the referral, I've found the solution. It was to do with the numpy version i was using :).
