Resizing Image leads to Segmentation Fault OpenCV C++ - c++

Question

I am working on a OpenCV project in C++. In this I am trying to read an image and then resize the image, but on resizing the image, I get Segmentation Fault.
I am using Ubuntu 20.04 and install OpenCV 4.5.4 following this tutorial: https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-install-opencv-on-ubuntu-20-04/
Here is the code I am using:
#include<opencv2/opencv.hpp>
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
using namespace cv;
int main()
{
// This works: Printing out the OpenCV version
cout << "OpenCV version : " << CV_VERSION << endl;
cout << "Major version : " << CV_MAJOR_VERSION << endl;
cout << "Minor version : " << CV_MINOR_VERSION << endl;
cout << "Subminor version : " << CV_SUBMINOR_VERSION << endl;
// This Works: Read the image using imread function
Mat image = imread("./test_image.jpg");
cv::Mat dst;
// This is where it fails.
cv::resize(image, dst, cv::Size(150,150));
cv::namedWindow("Source", cv::WINDOW_AUTOSIZE );
cv::imshow("Source", image);
cv::namedWindow("resize", cv::WINDOW_AUTOSIZE );
cv::imshow("resize", dst);
waitKey(0);
return 0;
}
I am able to show the loaded image/video frame before resizing.
Can someone please help me here as to where I am going wrong? I have been stuck on this for past 2 days, tried almost all tutorials and solutions available online, but nothing worked. Thanks.

Answer 1

First of all check if the image is empty or not using image.empty().
If that's not the case, then it's probably a issue with OpenCV. I faced the same problem with OpenCV 4.2. Updating the OpenCV version might solve the problem. OpenCV Version 4.6 perfectly worked for me.
