[Release Note] ERPNext Version 12

@DrTrills

Try:
bench clear-cache
before
bench update --build
NOT with sudo

Hope it helps.

Whoa!!! This is awesome… I almost feel like a kid in a candy store :blush:

Did this ship with the DB API as planned? Didn’t see anything about that in the release notes

Cheers!

I’m up and running! Needed to increase my VM on GCloud as my ram was too low. Now it seems to be working smoothly. Thanks

Hi Kirishnan,

Check this link out. That should resolve your issue. Hopefully. The software behind this forum replaces some of the characters, that’s the problem.

Thanks

Sir
Thanks for the reply

git config remote.upstream.fetch “+refs/heads/:refs/remotes/upstream/”

You need to run that from the frappe-bench/apps/erpnext folder and you have to replace in your command line “ with " and ” with ".

plus you need to add a star (the multiplication key *) after heads/ and upstream/

If that doesn’t go through run the same command with git config --replace-all …

Hope this helps.

Thanks

There won’t be any results in that screen. Now go back to frappe-bench folder and run

bench switch-to-branch version-12 --upgrade
bench update --patch

And if the DocType Item Manufacturer not found shows up:

bench run-patch erpnext.patches.v12_0.make_item_manufacturer

if you have multiple sites you will have to do that for each. The default site will go through when you run it the first time, but for the others you will have to use the command

bench --site sitename run-patch erpnext.patches.v12_0.make_item_manufacturer

Hope that helps

Thanks

Dude.

Type cd …/… from the ERPNext folder.

Or cd ~/frappe-bench from any other folder.

would you mind to specify how much RAM was not enough and which amount you have increased that to?

I was using v11 on GCP

  • g1-small Shared-core machine type with 0.5 vCPU, 1.70 GB of memory, backed by a shared physical core.

Now I upgraded it for v12 to:

  • n1-standard-1 Standard machine type with 1 vCPU and 3.75 GB of memory.

I cannot speak to the experience of others but after using it for nearly a day, V12 seems way more stable on release day than V11 was on release day. I know there are a few bugs here and there that need tidying up, but this is by far the most stable release i have experienced. And i love the new interface (I was initially skeptical about the changes when they were first announced). Some of the changes are indeed welcome (although there’s a bit of learning needed in order to understand the changes and additions).

Kudos to the entire Frappe team, developers and contributors for this amazing leap forward. Thank you for the work you do. :clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:

did you implement a K8 or installed/upgraded it?

My upgrade attempts failed as I was having mysql permission issues patching Item_Manufacture. I could not figure out why mysql was throwing 1045 permission denied error and all my attempts to fix it directly failed, so I set up a fresh instance and restored backup of my sites and it’s working fine.

Just to clear the process:

  • on which version was the backup taken? v11.x or version-11 ?
  • is it guaranteed that a verison-11 backup is restored onto a version-12 setup?

No chance for soem people. We are stuck by one of the patches:

pymysql.err.InternalError: (1054, “Unknown column ‘pricing_rules’ in ‘field list’”)

Since the Easy install prepares a version-12 system, we are not able to prepare a version-11 system and thus we are at the hands of developers. Not that we may do a manual install but I don’t think that will solve the version-12 upgrade problem specific to that patch.

My Backup was V11 and it restored to version 12 on most of my sites. I however had an issue with one site as i was getting this error: frappe.exceptions.DoesNotExistError: DocType Item Manufacturer not found. This was eventually fixed with bench --site sitename run-patch erpnext.patches.v12_0.make_item_manufacturer . My instance has been running smoothly since then. I haven’t really faced any issue since the move to V12.
