Unable to import paddle core

[clonesangram87]

While running below code I am getting an error shown below. Please advise how to fix this? I am running it in Google Colab.

from paddleocr import PaddleOCR,draw_ocr

Paddleocr supports Chinese, English, French, German, Korean and Japanese.

You can set the parameter lang as ch, en, fr, german, korean, japan

to switch the language model in order.

ocr = PaddleOCR(use_angle_cls=True, lang='en') # need to run only once to download and load model into memory

Error: Can not import paddle core while this file exists: /usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/paddle/fluid/libpaddle.so

ImportError Traceback (most recent call last)

I also encountered this problem and no matter how much I looked for a solution in the official docs, I did not get any results

run this two commands

!wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb
!sudo dpkg -i libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb
