        trainingFile: ‘modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition/training.xml’,

        I got a issue when i add the facial module. the Facial-tools work fine, it’s seems like python script issues.

        Could anyone help me with this issue ?

        Whoops! There was an uncaught exception…
        TypeError: PythonShell is not a constructor

        MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?
        If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues

                specify your user labels in the environment with

                export FACE_USERS=Alice,Bob,Casey,Doug

                im not sure what to do with this. do i have to write this in the terminal? because everytime i restart my pi, the facial recognition doesnt recognize my face

                      @naktah after writing the following command in the terminal:

                      python tools.train.py
                      

                      you get some output with the users you have setup (remember the order). Assuming it gives you Alice,Bob,Casey,Doug, then you run this in the terminal:

                      export FACE_USERS=Alice,Bob,Casey,Doug

                              @aniketdongare07 @SdeGeata the newer version of python only provide 3 version info strings. So that code needs to drop the 4th parm from the parse request

                              (CV_MAJOR_VER, CV_MINOR_VER, mv1) = cv2.

                                      @sdetweil Hey, buddy… I’m not sure what it is you’re telling me to do here. I wrote what you sent into the terminal but it didn’t do anything. In fact, it’s treating the = sign as a syntax error… what am I doing wrong?
