Challenges implementing ERPNext on Scaleway VPS

I’m trying to implement ERPNext on a Scaleway VPS. I’m having all kinds of problems.

Has anybody implemented ERPNext on Scaleway? Any hints/suggestions?

Thanks

Jay

Any particular errors you are facing? I use it actively.

A whole bunch. But before I send you the latest error, some validations:

Scaleway provides root access
I created another account, gave sudo access to it and then installed everything.
The easy install doesn’t go through too well, so I did the manual install.

Is that the right way to go about it? Or what?

Thanks

Below is what I use, I generally use easy install ( not too qualified to do a manual install :slight_smile: )

  1. sudo su
  2. apt-get install python-minimal
  3. wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frappe/bench/master/playbooks/install.py
  4. python install.py --production --user frappe

This usually works well for me for new installations.

Buddy: You saved my life. And like how!!

Permit me to buy you a beverage of your choice on one of the evenings of the conference.

Cheers
