python opencv TypeError: Layout of the output array incompatible with cv::Mat

My own solution was simply to ask a copy of original array...(god & gary bradski knows why...)

im = dbimg[i]
bb = boxes[i]  
m = im.transpose((1, 2, 0)).astype(np.uint8).copy() 
pt1 = (bb[0],bb[1])
pt2 = (bb[0]+bb[2],bb[1]+bb[3])  
cv2.rectangle(m,pt1,pt2,(0,255,0),2)  

Another reason may be that the array is not contiguous. Making it contiguous would also solve the issue

image = np.ascontiguousarray(image, dtype=np.uint8)

The solution was to convert found first to a numpy array, and then to recovert it into a list:

found = np.array(found)
boxes = cv2.groupRectangles(found.tolist(), 1, 2)
