This is a open-CV problem and related to the OS your running. Make sure you have installed opencv correctly.
Which OS are you running?

[CChamper]

Im on a VM running OS X 10.11

[sushant10]

I believe due to some incompatibilities of open-CV it has errors with older macOS and apple changing the clock get time definition. You might have to run it on MacOSX 10.12.

How did you install OpenCV? Using brew?

[CChamper]

Yeah, it was installed using brew

[CChamper]

I will try and upgrade to 10.12 to see if that makes a difference!

[sushant10]

Then i think it is a problem with OS. After looking at many posts i dont know what the solution is other than running it on OS X 10.12 or else might be a VM specific problem

Sorry that im not sure, i hope you figure it out.

The error was fixed when updating to OSX 10.12
