MMM-Facial-Recognition with PiCam doesn't start

[bhumi.ranawat]

We’re using PiCam for MMM-Facial-Recognition
The camera works well with capture and training but when we start MagicMirror code the picam doesn’t start
If anyone has any solution please reply fast we have to submit our project soon

Same here, I’m getting the following errors on python tools.facerecognition.py

Remember to set the name list environment variable FACE_USERS

After more fiddling, I get this in terminal:

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
