Hi Guys,
I am still looking for a solution. Please assist me. so, i may be able to test and realize ERPnext potential.
Looking forward for feedback.
I think you have missed installing python-dev and gcc on your system
apt install python-dev gcc
Delete the frappe-bench folder and try bench init again
ok, let me give it a try.
thanks for feedback!
How can i delete frappe-bench folder ?
I tried below command
bench remove-app [frappe-bench]
It says - I should not run this command as root !
Will you please share the command to be run
rm -rf frappe-bench should the folder. Also don’t execute bench init frappe-bench as the root user. Execute it as the frappe user.
Hi,
I tried your said steps!
It seems , its works. this is how my frappe-bench folder looks like now!
fawwad@erpnext:~/frappe-bench$ ls
apps config env logs patches.txt Procfile sites
I have five folders and two files!
If i compare it with the user guide, i cant find
package.json
package-lock.json
shall i proceed or you have some suggestion for me 
No, it’s perfect. You may proceed
Thanks dude for your assistance. much appreciated!!!
I am almost done with the installation.
Following user guide
i create my site as intellect.com (instead of foo.bar)
I am at the step
Installing Frappé Apps onto Sites
$ bench --site <MY_SITE> install-app <MY_APP_NAME>
e.g.
$ bench --site intellect.com install-app erpnext
when i am executing above command from my frappe-bench directoy , i encounter following problem!
fawwad@erpnext:~$ cd frappe-bench
fawwad@erpnext:~/frappe-bench$ bench --site intellect.com install-app erpnext

Please assist

Try restarting you mysql server using sudo systemctl restart mysql and then try again
hi,
I tried the said command
sudo systemctl restart mysql
but i am unable to get through.
Do i have to remove something first !
I presume, there may be some conflict in site !
As i already have a folder with intellect name as
/home/fawwad/frappe-bench/sites/intellect.com/
If possible, may you please connect with me. so, i may share my screen.
one more try
I just tried to update my hosts file
127.0.0.1 intellect.com
I have changed it to
127.0.0.1 localhost
then i run the command
bench --site intellect.com install-app erpnext
this time around, it process and update the documents and finishes the process (apparently gracefully).
now, when i am trying to access website
as written
You’re all set!
Now you can simply access the site you just created using the link foo.bar:8000
Nothing happen !! 
And it seems, i don’t have apache server as well ?
Dont we need it here !
This time, i tried your above linked
Easy Install on Fresh Debian 8
when i am running python install.py --develop
it suppose to run the script to do all installation and configuraiton but i end up with below errors. What would you suggest !
root@erpnext:/home/fawwad# python install.py --develop

apt install sudo
Ok, i install sudo and then add my user (fawwad) to sudo
then i run below command
sudo apt-get install python-minimal

Later i run and gives following message. It seems it didnt install all required stuff.

You need to install python-setuptools & python-dev packages
This is how i do on CentOS
sudo yum install -y redhat-lsb-core git python-setuptools python-devel openssl-devel libffi-devel
try apt update && apt upgrade -y before running the install.py script
