Hi,

Thank you for your guide but when running bench init frappe-bench --frappe-branch, the command gets stuck in the middle. Any help?

[Douglas_muriuki]

For this you can try the below command.

echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p

[MartinHBramwell]

Are you still trying to solve this?

Please look at … "bench init version-13" failing on Ubuntu 22.04 because of deprecated node-sass?

[Thaya_Govzig]

I have an issue after the step 13 i entered bench start and my screen is stuck at rebuilding login.css

What to do ? I tried reinstalling 3/4 times.

[mElfeshawey]

You can command :
Cntrl + C
it will exit bench

[Thaya_Govzig]

But will it start my site.

[mElfeshawey]

No
To use your site in this way you should run: bench star
If you want the site to start every startup you shoud install: Production
In this guide It is >>

Step 17 setup production

[Jade_Roller]

I installed using following commands:

1. $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frappe/bench/develop/easy-install.py
2. $ sudo python3 easy-install.py --prod --email useyouremail@email.com
   Now, After installation completion i get output:
   site1.local: SystemSettings.enable_scheduler is UNSET
   *** Scheduler is disabled ***
   Current Site set to site1.local
   When i try to connect to the site1.local i am unable to do so…Can you help me out?

[mohsininspire]

bench --site site1.local enable-scheduler

[revant_one]

if you’re trying locally make sure site name ends with .localhost

[Mahmoud_Ramadan]

after setup 14
run commend : “bench use dcode.com”

[Mark_Johnson]

I can’t get any of the new install methods of erpnext to work.
I’ve tried easy install, the unofficial github, the manual install, docker compose. Nothing seems to work.

Is there a set of steps that someone is using today that work?

I first thought it was my Pi, but I can’t do it on a regular x86_64 system either.
