I think this issue is a bug on the recent update…

I have another instance i have setup in a while and i just tried installing on that instance and the apps ran successfully. I then uninstalled, did a bench update and tried installing a again then i get the errors again…

The erpnext team has to look into this urgently…

Some pip or python requirements missing?

You may use this instal process:

Guide: Manual Install ERPNext on Ubuntu 17.xx & 18.xx

NOTE: 1). Clean install on Ubuntu 2). User is bench with sudo privileges 3). Installed on Virtualbox Virtual machines Login to your Local User Prerequisites Ubuntu 17.XX or 18.XX server instance. sudo apt update sudo apt -y upgrade Install Development Tools ERPNext needs Python version 2.7 to work. Install Python 2.7. sudo apt -y install python-minimal You should be able to verify its version. python -V Install a few more dependencies. sudo apt -y install git build-essential python-se…

(AT)vinhnguyent090 is probably your best bet (he has solved many pip related problems) - but it is not polite to tag people directly.
Maybe look up his profile and see the solutions he has created for similar problems

[EnSeal]

My apologies…

[EnSeal]

Hello thanks for your prompt response… I have run several clean installations and still arrived at same result. I don’t think the issue is with the installation.

Like I said I had an old instance I tried installing apps on, it installed perfectly after which I uninstalled then did bench update and tried same process and I ended with same error msg.

[trentmu]

I can’t say for sure, but I think the old instance(s) were running pip v9.0.3, which gave very few errors. The more recent version have pip v10+ or v18, which seems to give the error 1 (permissions) problem, but Vincent is good/successful at solving those problems

[EnSeal]

@trentmu thank you for the hint…do you know Vincent’s handle so i can send him a message

replace (AT) with @ - remember to be nice and to not abuse his good nature

What happens if you run

$ ./env/bin/pip install -e ./apps/process_manufacturing

Any more verbous error?

Hi @EnSeal
You can try this https://discuss.frappe.io/t/error-installing-app-with-command-get-app-env-bin-pip-install-q-e-apps-rrhh-no-cache-dir/907/2

[EnSeal]

this is the error when i run above script

Obtaining file:///home/ubuntu/frappe-bench/apps/process_manufacturing
Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
Traceback (most recent call last):

----------------------------------------

Command “python setup.py egg_info” failed with error code 1 in /home/ubuntu/frappe-bench/apps/process_manufacturing/

[lasalesi]

This is a known compatibility issue with pip > v9.

In your setup.py, replace

from pip.req import parse_requirements

with

try: # for pip >= 10
   from pip._internal.req import parse_requirements
except ImportError: # for pip <= 9.0.3
  from pip.req import parse_requirements

then try again and it will work.

thanks all for the tip…Downgrading the pip version from 18.0 to 9.0.3 solved my issue
