Functionality broken?

Hi! Sorry for the delay, the notice went to my Spam. ??
Your understanding is correct: you add an image to the Media Library and the plug-in will generate a new Post. If you are willing could you please share the following (and let me k is if you need help locating any of this):
* operating system and version of the server
* version and install location of Tesseract
* the output of php -m (your installed PHP modules)
* a screenshot or values of the plug-in configuration from WordPress

That will help me troubleshoot your issue.

Sorry for the delay in responding. It’s been quite a week!

Here’s everything I think you asked for:

My website is hosted on Dreamhost and they are using Ubuntu version 18.04.4.LTS

I’m using Tesseract 4.1.1
installed at /home/paulandartie/.linuxbrew/bin/tesseract

Here’s the output of php -m

and I can’t seem to get a screenshot to post of the plug-in configuration in WordPress, but it’s listed as:

Absolute path to Tesseract: /home/paulandartie/.linuxbrew/bin/tesseract
Resize percentage: 200
Language string: eng

Thanks!

That all looks correct. Unfortunately there aren’t any debugging tools built into the plugin. One thing you could do, on your server browse to the WordPress upload directory (usually “wp-content/uploads/”) and find the folder for the day you test. We want to know if the temporary processing files are still in there: the resized image (“ocr_image.png”) or the scanned text (“ocr_text.txt”). If either of those are present please check their content or share a copy here.

I’m afraid I don’t see any files that look like that in the uploads folder. I guess my question is, what would that mean? They aren’t getting processed at all? Thanks.

Not necessarily. Those files are produced during the process and then removed at various stages. I am working on adding some debug logging that will helpful hope troubleshoot issues like this – stay tuned!

Any luck on this yet? Thanks!

Still nothing ready to publish. This is my only WP plugin and was developed for a single client (who graciously agreed to let me open-source it), and it is working fine for his instance. Unfortunately this means changes like this compete with my need to complete work for paid clients, so I only work on this in between tasks. It may be a bit still, but if you are able to do any additional debugging yourself I am glad to receive the results which might help discover a faster solution.
