Email Error Table 'tabContact' doesn't exist

Frappe Framework

Hey,

When i try to send a document attached as email , it gives the following traceback . My outgoing email account is configured correctly.

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/home/akarsh/frappe-bench/apps/frappe/frappe/app.py", line 67, in application
    response = frappe.handler.handle()

Does this mean erpnext app needs to be installed ?

Thanks,

Yeah, seems like an issue. This must be cleanly separated maybe by hooks.

3

Any immediate solution possible ?

Will creation of the same table ( from erpnext )solve the problem ?

I think it still points to missing tabContact table . I haven’t installed erpnext as other apps don’t require it

6

It will not throw an exception

In the long run we want to move Contact to frappe

It throws exception in mine . I badly need the email attachment feature . Could you suggest any work around ?
