Error: Cannot find module 'socket.io'

Hi all

I Cannnot start bench using bench start command.
I am running erpnext on my ubuntu 16.04.
The error showing on terminal is

Redis must be restarted after THP is disabled.

Anyone to how to solve this issue? plz

Hi,

It looks like socketio is not installed. Go to the frappe-bench directory and execute:

npm install socket.io redis express superagent cookie
