I am getting a similar error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Has anyone found a solution to this ?

[VineetTambe]

import e

The solution is to install the "empy" and the "pyyaml" packages if not installed already

pip install empy
pip install pyyaml

• open the file mentioned in the error "catkin_ws/src/ros_essentials_cpp/src/topic03_perception/cpp/open_copy.cpp"
• change to become <opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp>
