cv2.error: OpenCV(4.5.2) resize.cpp:4051: error: (-215:Assertion failed) !ssize.empty() in function 'cv::resize'

I am receiving this error when running this line of code :

pixels.append( cv2.resize(cv2.imread(raw_folder  + folder +"/" + file),dsize=(128,128)))**

Error:

cv2.error: OpenCV(4.5.2) C:\Users\runneradmin\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-req-build-vi271kac\opencv\modules\imgproc\src\resize.cpp:4051: 
error: (-215:Assertion failed) !ssize.empty() in function 'cv::resize'

Another situation that lead to this error was to input an image of the wrong shape. I had an RGB image of shape (3, 540, 960) and got the misleading 'ssize is not empty'. Changing the shape to (540, 960, 3) fixed my problem.

You may have common problem: when CV2 can't read file then it doesn't raise error but it returns None and now you try to resize None - empty image - and this shows !ssize.empty().

You should first read image, next check if you get None and next try to resize it.

You should check if raw_folder + folder +"/" + file creates correct path and if you can open it in any other program. Maybe you forgot some / in path (ie. between raw_folder and folder) or forgot file extension or you create path to not existing file.

path = os.path.join(raw_folder, folder, file)
print('[DEBUG] path:', path)

img = cv2.imread(path)

if img is None:
    print('Wrong path:', path)
else:
    img = cv2.resize(img, dsize=(128,128))
    pixels.append(img)
