Unable to Install ERPNext manually or via Script

Install / Update Setup
1

I have been trying to install ERPNext on my Ubuntu 14.04 LTS server for two days but the errors/bugs make it impossible. I have tried the script install version from Frappe 's github and also the manual installation. Right now I am trying to install it via the script and fix all the errors all the way.

Here’s the code. I can’t remember what I did, but I passed through this NTPD Enable error. Then I got stuck on dns.
NOTE: I edited “install.py” below to “install. py” as I was unable to post this without it.

  1. Install using root user and not frappe user
  2. May I know the exact sequence of steps you followed, to arrive at this
  3. Can you give some more details about the server/host you’re using

Thanks for the reply.

I installed everything with root user. Only switched to frappe user to install bench as stated on GitHub - frappe/bench: CLI to manage Multi-tenant deployments for Frappe apps

I followed all the steps from

to install the Prerequisites. And then after installing, went back to GitHub - frappe/bench: CLI to manage Multi-tenant deployments for Frappe apps to install bench, adding site & apps.

This server already hosts Odoo. I am exploring ERPNext so that I can switch to it.
Also, I have 2 Odoo servers.
I have tried the manual installation of ERPNEXT and the scripted method about 3-4 times on each server. But failed. Tried with uninstalling bench and frappe-bench completely, and also by just reinstalling over the previous installation so that the missing files (if any) may be installed.

Automated install is for setting up ERPNext on a fresh server, and these steps can be followed:

cd ~
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y
apt-get install -y curl git wget python-dev gcc
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frappe/bench/master/playbooks/install.py
sudo python install.py --production --user frappe --mysql-root-password mysql_password_you_want --admin-password admin_pass_you_want

If you face any errors in this process post the error log here.

For manual install please follow this guide,

Thanks, the Hitchhiker’s guide helped a little bit, but I had to resolve some errors on the way. Also, now I am stuck on the Sorry! We will be back soon. page.
I have been on this page on my previous installs. Tried to setup nginx, but no luck with it.
Also, I’ve tried all the solutions posted on these forums for the same Sorry! We will be back soon. page. But nothing seems to be working.

You are persistent - and after a failed install you best clean up?

It worked for me after removing ntp (sudo apt purge ntp) and letting the script reinstall.

That aside, I’ve more bugs to report, where can I do so? For example, when it asks for administrator and DB password, it accepts blank entries but fail when configuring database. And of course even if installation succeeded, the login form doesn’t accept empty password box. Then there’s npm. When it’s installing yarn or something, it’ll fail because there’s no npm in the system. It should be one of the packages the script installs by itself.

I resolved the npm issue a couple of days ago. I’ve faced every possible problem in installing ERPNext.
So frustating.
Your ntp solution looks good, lemme try that. Cheers

Yeah, it’d be great if there was a proper manual installation guide, like what exactly and what version needs to be installed. The script’s too big to manually go through and see what’s going on, and the error messages aren’t the most helpful.

I’ve been trying to get ERPNext running on Raspberry Pi 3 for a week now, and I’ve faced unresolved dependency issues on Raspbian, CentOS and Ubuntu MATE. Ubuntu Server supports only RPi2, today I finally got it to work after some minor modifications on RPi2. I’m installing using the script as I write.

And here we go, I’m stuck at the last step again:

You’re having issues with creating apps and site. Try to manually download and install that. And then try running the script.

13

To do that, I need to switch user to frappe (I’m doing install.py --production), but I don’t know the sudo password the script set for the user. It’s not the administrator password I gave.

I tried it anyway:

$ sudo su frappe 
sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu
frappe@ubuntu:/home/ubuntu$  cd ~/frappe-bench/
frappe@ubuntu:~/frappe-bench$  bench new-site site1.local --admin-password 0 --mariadb-root-password 0

It’s obvious I need sudo privilege on frappe, but I ain’t got password for that.

14

Try resetting MySql password.

15

Resetting didn’t help, so I went with fresh Ubuntu install:
