Hi
Background:
I am trying to use ERPNext at my day-job but the install on their server fails. It happens when
it tries to connect to mirror-sites and it seems to be cert-validation related. Sorry but I did
not take snapshots.
I am trying something else to save the situation because I would love to get ERPNext to be
used. So I thought a containerise install will help the situation. The thing is I have zero
experience with docker.
So here is what I did:
Did some searching about docker and an erpnext-docker-image…
Found these sites…
https://github.com/frappe/frappe_docker/blob/main/docs/single-bench.md
And based on this, I used this procedure…
Created droplet at Digital ocean that already has Docker on.
docker 19.03.12
Ubuntu 20.04
in my erpnext-user-home…
sudo git clone GitHub - frappe/frappe_docker: Docker images for production and development setups of the Frappe framework and ERPNext
cd frappe_docker
sudo cp env-production .env
I edited .env …

Install seems to go without a hitch. On the first attempt I got a lot of “permission” errors, hence
this one I did using “sudo”
towards the end … a lot of green “Running” indications.
If I do a ps -ax it seems a lot of processes running that I am expecting …
But if I type in my IP-address in my browser, it says … 404 page not found.

Could I ask for some assistance with this?
My strategy is to get it running on a digital ocean dropplet and use that environment to
“practise”, then I can try do the same on the server at the company.
