Can't Upgrade ERPNext 9.1.1 to latest version

Install / Update

Hi members… I’m using erpnext 9.1.1 and frappe 9.1.2 in self hosted AWS. I found version ERPNext 9.1.1 even after trying bench update.

Holding my minimum experience, request for support from experienced hands to update ERPNext to the latest version. Thanks in advance.

Hi Eduardo,
Thanks for your response.
I tried the same commands and the result was as follows:

:~/frappe-bench/apps/frappe$ git status
On branch dev
Your branch is ahead of ‘upstream/dev’ by 1 commit.
(use “git push” to publish your local commits)

nothing to commit, working directory clean

:~/frappe-bench/apps/frappe$ git push
warning: push.default is unset; its implicit value is changing in
Git 2.0 from ‘matching’ to ‘simple’. To squelch this message
and maintain the current behavior after the default changes, use:

git config --global push.default matching

To squelch this message and adopt the new behavior now, use:

git config --global push.default simple

When push.default is set to ‘matching’, git will push local branches
to the remote branches that already exist with the same name.

In Git 2.0, Git will default to the more conservative ‘simple’
behavior, which only pushes the current branch to the corresponding
remote branch that ‘git pull’ uses to update the current branch.

See ‘git help config’ and search for ‘push.default’ for further information.
(the ‘simple’ mode was introduced in Git 1.7.11. Use the similar mode
‘current’ instead of ‘simple’ if you sometimes use older versions of Git)

repository access denied. access via a deployment key is read-only.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

Seems to be problems with file permissions on your system

I agree with @netchampfaris

Which user are you using to run the bench update command?

Did you installed you erpnext as root?
if you did try the same commands usind sudo su

To work your permissions try the following
sudo chown -R frappe:frappe /home/frappe/frappe-bench

HI Wale,

I am using “sudo -H -u frappe bash” before “bench update”.
I tried by switch user as frappe and root too. Still the result is same error.

Hi @ameerbabu,

it seems that you are on a strange branch “dev”. The branch should be “master” or “develop”. Try this

$ cd /home/frappe/frappe-bench/apps/frappe
$ git checkout master
$ git reset --hard
$ git pull
$ cd /home/frappe/frappe-bench/apps/erpnext
$ git checkout master
$ git reset --hard
$ git pull
$ cd ../..
$ bench update

This should pull the latest master version. You may also try to run

$ git remote -v

and check the output to make sure that you are linked to upstream GitHub - frappe/frappe: Low code web framework for real world applications, in Python and Javascript and /erpnext respetively (run in the apps/frappe and erpnext folder).

Hope this helps.

Hi,
Looks like the issue is with the bench repo, go to bench repo folder and do a git checkout.
Thanks

12

Have you made changes to the server-side software?
I assume not. Therefore:

do:
1.frappe@ip:~/frappe-bench$ bench switch-to-master
2.frappe@ip:~/frappe-bench$ git reset --hard
3. frappe@ip:~/frappe-bench/apps/frappe$ git reset --hard
4.frappe@ip:~/frappe-bench/apps/erpnext$ git reset --hard
5.frappe@ip:~/frappe-bench$ git reset --hard

switches all apps including bench to master branch. You might need to do git stash in each of the folders in the apps to disregard server-side changes. Once this is done, do the magical step:

5.frappe@ip:~/frappe-bench$ bench update --reset

if you get permission issues, switch to a sudo user and navigate to the same folder and do the update.

Dear fineco and Ranjith…

Thanks for your advice. I’ll try this and let you know the result.

Hi all…
I failed to restore the corrupted files.

So I created a fresh instance in AWS EC2, installed ERPNext and Frappe.
Downloaded the sites from old instance and trying to restore it to the sites in new instance.
