Hi,
(i’m a newbie, and not a trained techie guy, just reading and learning)
I have a server managed by Cloudways on Digital Ocean.
Running:
python -V
Python 2.7.9
curl -V
curl 7.38.0 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.38.0 OpenSSL/1.0.1t zlib/1.2.8 libidn/1.29 libssh2/1.4.3 librtmp/2.3
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap ldaps pop3 pop3s rtmp rtsp scp sftp smtp > smtps telnet tftp
Features: AsynchDNS IDN IPv6 Largefile GSS-API SPNEGO NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz TLS-SRP
mysql -V
mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.0.28-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.2
nginx -v
nginx version: nginx/1.10.1
redis-server --version
Redis server v=3.2.5 sha=00000000:0 malloc=jemalloc-4.0.3 bits=64 build=474f5462991a0e92
node --version
v6.9.1
Apparently I won’t be able to have sudo access (https://support.cloudways.com/why-cant-i-have-root-access-to-my-server/)
I followed the steps, but can’t run install.py cause i don’t have sudo privileges.
python install.py --user my_user --production --verbose
[sudo] password for my_user:
my_user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
Traceback (most recent call last):

Are there any chance to install frappe/ERPNext without root access?

$ pip install -e bench-repo/

Hi @benjaroa
Did you try command using sudo?
As I said:
Apparently I won’t be able to have sudo access (https://support.cloudways.com/why-cant-i-have-root-access-to-my-server/)
I’m wondering if it’s there a way to install frappe/ERPNext without root acces…
Hi @benjaroa,
You can install the setup without root access, but there is some package which requires permission of the current user. Can you check using virtual environment, it may resolve your issue.
Hi @rohit_w,
Thanks for your kind answers but I still can’t run ERPNext. I checked the documentation, but can’t run the first step: $ pip install virtualenv.
