Ich bin heute auf Coolify von Coollabs gestoßen, womit ich mir ein anderen Opensource-Script kinderleicht installieren konnte.
Leider entdeckte ich darin noch nicht das ERPNext, weshalb ich gleich mal hier nachfragen wollte, ob Ihr vielleicht mit den Entwicklern euch kurzschließen könntet, damit diese das ERPNext mit integriert wird? (Es ist vielleicht besser, wenn dies zwischen den Entwicklern geschieht, als nur von einem interessierten Nutzer.)
It should be possible to install it on any vps, specially if it’s running coolify. I’m trying to do that, but I’m going thru so many issues that I can’t believe I’m working with docker compose, git or all these tools. It should be easier with coolify and all that, although it is still not the case → I’m going to keep pushing that key until it works!
I installed ErpNext about 3 weeks ago directly on a Hetzner Cloud without any other intermediate platform like coolify and it’s been working so far, but I don’t have time at the moment to delve deeper into ErpNext.
Thanks for replying, I too got erpnext working with manual installation on vps long back, but I was trying to implement docker method. It’s painful to setup atleast for me while frappe cloud does tha all in a jiff. Still I’ll get back if i can get it working.
yeah it’s a pain frappe/erpnext is so hard to get working on a managed hosting platform like plesk, even the docker approach is tricky (and pretty poorly documented, from the perspective of a non-pro) if you need non-standard modules.
Also ran into coolify recently, seems like a very nice platform.
I’d prefer Dokploy over coolify because it uses docker swarm instead of simple docker compose. For coolify, docker swarm support is experimental at the time of this reply.
yeah and thank you for that, I’m just sad this requires so much manual labor still.
That aside, I’m still fairly new to frappe/erpnext, and I only recently ran into frappe press/cloud. Given that this is the native control client for installing and managing frappe installations, is there a reason why people still prefer to mainly provide manuals for installing erpnext rather than this software (other than frappe press recommending a multi-server setup)?
Coolify, Dokploy, Portainer are other open source projects that can run containers. Not just frappe, they run mariadb, wordpress, gitlab, etc. Community finds these projects and recommended them here on forums.
Frappecloud is a source of income for frappe developers, it is recommended so they keep building more foss products and maintain this community. Frappe/press is used in production by frappecloud.com. It is difficult to install frappe/press and it is not required for self hosted erpnext installation.
easy-install script from frappe/bench uses containers. It generates similar (like dokploy templates) compose yaml using cli.
