 TESSDATA_PREFIX=/usr/local/share/tessdata/ 

would appear to be my directory i need testdata_prefix to be pointed to, see:
[
root@tower tesseract-ocr]# ls /usr/local/share/tessdata/
configs  tessconfigs

however `locate eng.traineddat` doesn't find anything

thanks in advance

Never mind, I fixed the problem by installing a language pack.
