Hi welcome to ERPNext,

Your install failed since ERPNext now requires python3 to run, while you CentoOS environment has say python2.7.

So try either of these yum install python3 or dnf install python3

[clarkej@tango tmp]$ python -V
Python 2.7.5
[clarkej@tango tmp]$ uname -a
Linux tango 3.10.0-1062.12.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Feb 4 23:02:59 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[clarkej@tango tmp]$ python3 -V
Python 3.6.8
[clarkej@tango tmp]$ dnf install python3
Error: This command has to be run under the root user.
[clarkej@tango tmp]$ sudo dnf install python3
