Error in new Installation

Hi,

I am installing new ERPNEXT on Ubuntu 18.04 as per instructions in following site :

I have been successfuly completed all steps & also installed bench,

When I give the command : > bench init erpnext
I get following error commands

Normally this indicates a permissions error - maybe try it with a sudo

I was able to install erpnext by doing fresh install.

Thanks
