Hi,
I have tried to follow this guides to install Erpnext on a VM, following the Oficial Guide for installation on Centos 7.
The scenario was set on:
Centos 7 : 3.10.0-327.28.3.el7.x86_64
Minimal installation.
Steps:
yum install vim wget ntp telnet open-vm-tools -y
yum (upgrade or update) -y
–To disable firewall
sudo vim /etc/sysconfig/selinux
Content of file Selinux:
/* This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded. */
SELINUX=disabled
/* SELINUXTYPE= can take one of three two values:
targeted - Targeted processes are protected,
minimum - Modification of targeted policy. Only selected processes are protected.
mls - Multi Level Security protection.*/
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
-End of file content
Restartart
init 6
Run command:
su -
mkdir /opt/erpnext
cd /opt/erpnext
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frappe/bench/master/install_scripts/setup_frappe.sh
bash setup_frappe.sh --setup-production

I found problems running the Nginx service the /home/frappe/frappe-bench/config/nginx.conf was set as a symlink on the path /etc/nginx/conf.d/ and linked as frappe-bench.conf and on the main Nginx configuration directive, it was set the include conf.d/*.conf, when I tried to start the web service it failed, the reason I found out is that the Nginx was having issues with configs from symlink.
When issuing the command: nginx -t, everything run fine, but if It was run as a normal service it show up with an error like:
→ nginx: [emerg] open() “/etc/nginx/conf.d/frappe-bench.conf” failed (13: Permission denied) in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:20
→ nginx[5657]: nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
—>nginx.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1
→ systemd[1]: Failed to start The nginx HTTP and reverse proxy server.
So I did some modifications and copied the frappe-bench.conf symlinked to frappe.conf with root as owner:
cd /etc/nginx/conf.d/
ls -ls
frappe-bench.conf (symlink file)
cp frappe-bench.conf frappe.conf
rm frappe-bench.conf
Restart Nginx service:
service nginx start (I start the service since it was not started due to many failed attempts)
Whe running the <command journalctl -xe>:
– Unit nginx.service has begun starting up.
systemd[1]: nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
systemd[1]: nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful

The port 80 and 81 were set for company.com and company2.com for test purpose.
Keep also in mind that Centos has a serius problems with its “systemctl” service, in order to run and create services, that is why you should run the < yum upgrade -y> command after installation.
Some of the procedures were taken from
Note:
By the time I was trying to setup the Erpnext solution and tried to access to http://company1.com:80 or http://company2.com it shows up a “403 Forbidden”. Trying to figure out what is happening.
