I tried configure the DNS but I couldn’t access the site in a browser. Here is the details how I configured the DNS

  1. I added the IP address and the DNS in /etc/hosts
  2. change the site name to my DNS to match the site mv ~/frappe-bench/sites/site1.local ~/frappe-bench/sites/erp.local
  3. bench set-nginx-port erp.local 80
  4. bench config dns_multitenant on
  5. bench setup nginx
  6. sudo service nginx restart

and I also tried to ping the DNS and it is pointing to the IP Address.

Your response will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

If you want to set up a custom domain like myapp.local for your local Frappe server, follow these steps:

  1. Edit /etc/hosts
    Run:

    sudo nano /etc/hosts

    Add this line at the bottom:

    127.0.0.1  myapp.local

  2. Add the domain to your site

    bench setup add-domain --site [sitename] myapp.local

    Then restart:

    bench restart

  3. Set active site

    bench use [sitename]

  4. Access your site
    Open http://myapp.local:8000 in your browser.

If you’re using Nginx, don’t forget:

bench setup nginx
sudo service nginx restart

That’s it!

Thank you for your response. But I couldn’t bench restart.

Do you have any idea how to fix this?

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
