error: package directory 'openalpr' does not exist

Hi,

After downloading 2.3.0 of github and running python\setup.py install, I get the following error. I searched/read many articles trying to this working and would appreciate some help.

(licenseplate) C:\Users\somone\Downloads\openalpr-2.3.0-win-64bit\openalpr_64\python>python setup.py install
running install
running build
running build_py
error: package directory 'openalpr' does not exist

I'm on windows 10, anaconda, python 3.6.2 64-bit

Thank you.

I'm not familiar with anaconda but I got it working with just Python on Windows:

• add the openalpr_64 directory to the path (I put it in the user variables Path, from your example you should add C:\Users\somone\Downloads\openalpr-2.3.0-win-64bit\openalpr_64)
• restart the computer
• download the source code as a zip from https://github.com/openalpr/openalpr/releases
• unzip it somewhere
• run the same python setup.py install command but this time from openalpr-2.3.0\src\bindings\python it should work this time
  Now you should be able to use openalpr with python.

It allows to import openalpr in Python but for me it generates the next error:

OSError: Unable to locate the OpenALPR library. Please make sure that OpenALPR is properly installed on your system and that the libraries are in the appropriate paths. Exception ignored in: <bound method Alpr.__del__ of <openalpr.openalpr.Alpr object at 0x000001571BE136D8>>

and:
AttributeError: 'Alpr' object has no attribute 'loaded'
