Confused about installation of ERPNext

Good afternoon all,
 
I would very much like to look at Version 2.0 of ERPNext.
 
I have just done a clean install following the instructions listed on the download page and I have run into some issues. I also
will declare that I am new to the world of Python, so please bear with me if some of my questions seem dumb.
 
Firstly, is there an easy way of seeing what version of the Application and Framework that you have installed?
 
Secondly, after reading a number of comments on here, rightly or wrongly there version that is downloaded following the instaructions
is still version 1.x of the Framework and the Application?
 
Thirdly, that there is an undocumented feature in the download that causes some issues with regard: Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server..
 
Lastly, how do I get version 2.x and then install it.
 
I am running the following configuration.
 
Server OS:    Ubuntu
Version:         12.04.3 LTS
Python:          2.7.3
Apache:         2.2.22
Port:               8083 
The version I have downloaded appears to run correctly when running on the development server using the command.   ./lib/wnf.py --serve
 
Thanking you in advance for your help with this matter. 
 
Warm regards
Nigel

Hi Nigel,

If you have WSGI (I think that is what your refer to as 2.0) running
via ./lib/wnf.py --serve, then below are the instructions to make your
instance production ready,

Thus, Apache is no more a dependency to run ERPNext.

The permission denied issue that the users are facing are due to
Apache, and are not related to WSGI.

We do not semantically version the application as of now, so you will
have to compare from github (master branch) to see if there are
updates.

Thanks,

Pratik

Hi Nigel,

If you have WSGI (I think that is what your refer to as 2.0) running
via ./lib/wnf.py --serve, then below are the instructions to make your
instance production ready,
https://github.com/webnotes/erpnext/wiki/WSGI-Production-Deployment

Thus, Apache is no more  a dependency to run ERPNext.

The permission denied issue that the users are facing are due to
Apache, and are not related to WSGI.

We do not semantically version the application as of now, so you will
have to compare from github (master branch) to see if there are

Hi Pratik,
thanks for the quick responce and it has pointed me in the right direction.
I have set up the erpnext instance as set out the documentioned. I am geting the following
error message when I attemp to start nginx:
2013/11/07 13:44:00 [emerg] 8747#0: unknown "erpnext" variable
where is $erpnext set.
I have also noticed that some of the directives used in the nginx.conf file have been obsoleted in nginx.
Thanking you in advance, once again for your help with this matter.
Warm regards
Nigel

That is a mistake, sorry for that.
It should be,
proxy_pass http://erpnext;

and not

proxy_pass http://$erpnext;

(documentation updated)

I have also noticed that some of the directives used in the nginx.conf file
have been obsoleted in nginx.

Which directives in the configuration are obosolete? We can fix the
configuration to remove them.

Thank you,

Thanking you in advance, once again for your help with this matter.
