Unable to move past the Desk Setup Wizard in Ubuntu Installation

Hi, I have installed Erpnext on Ubuntu 18.04.1 , and when i do the bench start command, what i receive is the Setup screen, but one that is not active, it doesn’t work, i have attached screenshot, and when i try the Inspect Element all i can see is many errors that resources cannot be loaded. [Screenshot%20from%202018-10-20%2011-40-13] I can’t figure out if i am missing something essential during the setup. Or is it something to do with Https while accessing the URL?

I assume you are trying to install develop not production . I have not been able to install develop for months. Have complained and no answer, sot what I did, I installed production, got past Setup Wizard and switched to develop.

Thanks for the reply coldfire , how exactly do you switch to production is it the same as switching to master branch

Well i didn’t know how to install “production” then, i installed “develop” and then switched to “production” but i guess that’s why it didn’t make any difference.

How do we install the production version?

@cristus , i found a solution to the issue, there was a bug that was introduced in frappe bench and by updates done in the last one week , they have however fixed the issue so please try
$ bench update

NB/ stay on the develop branch, if it does not work please try to update erpnext

Guide: Manual Install ERPNext on Ubuntu 16.xx & Debian v8 & 9

Hi All, After doing a clean manual install for Ubuntu 16.xx & Debian v8 & 9 (Specifically Debian Stretch) to understand what some of the issues/errors that we all get, following is what I ended up with that solves some of issues that come up. If anyone comes across any issues and resolves them please add them to the steps here. This is not final and I expect it can be refined further. NOTE: This of course could vary for everyone. But a few things to take into consideration Clean install on…

Has everything you will need. I personally recommend a manual install as it helps you learn what can go wrong and how to fix some of those problems, but there is also an easy install route if you need it.

Thank you i will have a look at that

Thanks @Kipngetich33 , actually i figured out that, i had installed ERPNext on Ubuntu 18 , whereas the requirements for installing on the Github was mentioned as Ubuntu 16. So i reinstalled my machine with Ubuntu 16 and gave it a try, and you know what, it worked… I don’t know if this is the case with any of you trying this, but otherwise, i think this solution of “bench update” should work.
