OCR exception - net.pipe://localhost/UiPath.Vision.Host/BrokerService_IHostService_

Issue

Read PDF With OCR: Error performing OCR: There was no endpoint listening at net.pipe://localhost/UiPath.Vision.Host/BrokerService_IHostService_9513c644-9a2f-453a-a609-0b7d82f06bdb that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.

I encounter an error whenever I use any OCR engine to try to read a pdf with images.

Did you find any solution to this? Have the same problem myself.

Sorry, I could not find the solution or identify the cause. I had to use another machine to run the programme. If you find out, please post it here for future reference. Thank you
