Please show the commands you executed to arrive at that point.

Please also use code formatting to make code and output readable. See formatting here, for example: Can't use port 8000 except as NGinx upstream. What am I missing? - #5 by MartinHBramwell

In my case, I removed ubuntu 20.04 and reinstalled ubuntu 18.04. it works well :smiley:
It seems Ubuntu 20.04 LTS is still not stable, some errors still exist.

These are the following commands we’ve
executeded :

  1. bench start
  2. bench --site mysite install-app erpnext (This is where we got this error while Frappe erpnext app
    installation)

This seems like a Python3.8 issue, which comes pre-packed with Ubuntu 20.04 (18.04 comes with python3.6).

I think there’s some minor issues with running Frappe/ERPNext on 3.8 right now, so an alternative on 20.04 could be to separately install python3.6 and use that as your bench env instead.

The command for moving your env is bench migrate-env <python_executable>. For example, after installing python3.6, you could run bench migrate-env python3.6.

Do not use python3.8, use 3.7

On ubuntu 20, you have to install specific versions of numpy/pandas

ubuntuRELEASE=$(lsb_release --release --short | cut -d. -f1); printf "$ubuntuRELEASE\n"

if [[ $ubuntuRELEASE -eq 20 ]]; then
  cd $HOME/frappe-bench;
  ./env/bin/pip3 install numpy==1.18.5;
  ./env/bin/pip3 install pandas==0.24.2;
fi;

normally you should bench get-app erpnext
after downloaded erpnext, bench trying to convert erpnext into a proper python module or so called install.
when converting, seems like pandas needs numpy and if numpy >= 1.18.5, the process errored, and so far ppl recommend using pandas 0.24.2 too.

so, before, get-app erpnext, i would need to pip install numpy==1.18.5 as well pandas.
then get-app erpnext will be success.

after that, bench --site xxx.yyy.zzz install-app erpnext will be success.

This helped. Thanks, the python is still on 3.8 and it is working after updating numpy and pandas as trentmu suggested. Thanks
