Easy Install Failed on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

I’m letting it execute now. I have added erpnext as a new user to the system, added it to the sudoers list, and it just failed.

~$ sudo -H python3 install.py --production --site localhost --user erpnext --mysql-root-password 12345 --admin-password 12345 --bench-name testbench

For your first ever install, it is probably best to drop all of the switches except – production and --user

Let the install script handle everything else in it’s own way. You can always change the other stuff after you get a successful install. Let’s just get it to work first.

The playbook changes frequently and can sometimes be a bit fragile. Use the least invasive method possible and ask as little of the script as you can get away with. This will serve you better and reduce the risk of errors. You will be prompted on the screen for the passwords during the running of the script.

Also, you can drop the -H when using Ubuntu 18.04 and up.
