Install problem: (1050, "Table 'tabdocfield' already exists")

tartine76 · December 23, 2013, 10:56am

Hello,

I'm trying to install erpnext with this script: https://raw.github.com/webnotes/erpnext/master/install_erpnext.py
on an Ubuntu Server 12.04

I have this error: _mysql_exceptions.OperationalError: (1050, "Table 'tabdocfield' already exists")
I'm a developper but my python knowledge is too light to understand the source code.
Any idea ?
Thanks

Seems you are trying to reinstall on an existing database?

Check if conf.py is created. If yes try:

lib/wnf.py --reinstall -f

Hello,
thanks for your answer.

I deleted everything (the database and the home folder /home/erpnext/) and retried:

cd /home
sudo su
wget https://raw.github.com/webnotes/erpnext/master/install_erpnext.py
python2.7 install_erpnext.py --create_user

and still the same ...

I have no more ideas.

Are you using the same database?

We are unable to replicate at our end.

If you want to evaluate it, you can use the Virtual Machine

Hello,

I'm certain the database does not exist. I retried today.

Checked before installation: no database.

Some tables are created

Checked after installation failed: Database is created and contains this tables:

- __auth

- tabbulk email

- tabcomment

- tabcommunication

- tabcustom field

- tabcustom script

- tabcustomize form

- tabdefault home page

- tabdefaultvalue

- tabdocfield

- tabdocperm

- tabdoctype

- tabfile data

- tabseries

- tabsessions

- tabsingles

I'm looking for an ERP that I'm able to install by myself so I'm not interested in a Virtual Appliance.

One precision: openerp is installed on the same box ...

Could it be some parameter in mysql ? I'm surprised , there are spaces in table names !

Thanks

The tables you have enumerated are not enough (less in number) and the
conf file is faulty (database name and passwor d is not entered). So,
I suggest run a fresh install.

There are spaces in table names for legacy reasons. You can use
backquote () to escape in queries (eg, tabSerial No`).

Hello, and thankd for answering.

It's not the first time I installed.

Each time,

- I delete erpnext user and its home.

- I download again th install script

- I drop the database

So in my understanding, it is a fresh install.

What do you mean by "and the conf file is faulty (database name and password is not entered)" ?

Some tables are created: It means that the installation script can connect to mysql, create the database and (some) tables.

Yes, you are right about that, it is a fresh install if you do this.

What do you mean by “and the conf file is faulty (database name and password

The %(dbname)s what you see should be replaced by the database name
(this part is templated and correct values are automatically injected
during install, did not happen in your case).

Some tables are created: It means that the installation script can connect
to mysql, create the database and (some)
Heidy

Are you following the instructions from here?

Also, we push some changes to the script yesterday. Can you try again?

Just to let you know.
I didn't solve the problem but i have another ubuntu 12.04 server and on this one the install script is OK.

The main difference between these 2 boxes:

- The first one, on which the install script fails, is a desktop edition (with gnome) so maybe that's the problem ...
- The second one (script OK) is a Ubuntu server 12.04.

Don't lose your time on this topic. As for me, it's sufficient for the moment.

Thanks for your help
