ERPNext on Noble Numbat (Daily) - RestrictedPython~=6.2 Error

ERPNext

Hi - I’m trying the install of ERPNext (15) on a recent daily of the Noble Numbat server - as per:
https://github.com/flexcomng/erpnext_quick_install

Getting this error at the Frappe install:

Collecting PyYAML~=6.0.1 (from frappe==15.18.0)

Seems to be caused by Python 3.12. Is there any workaround? This is the only thing preventing an install on 24.04 - so far …

V15 doesn’t support python 3.12 yet, we’ll add it in next week’s release

Thanks ankush

Will wait with anticipation.

FYI - I’ve done a few changes to the install script referred to. Changed line 26 to:
SUPPORTED_VERSIONS=(“24.04” “23.10” “22.04” “20.04” “11” “10” “9” “8”)

And added these at about line 319:
sudo rm -f /usr/lib/python3.11/EXTERNALLY-MANAGED
sudo rm -f /usr/lib/python3.12/EXTERNALLY-MANAGED

  • just before “sudo pip3 install frappe-bench”.

Works a treat with 23.10. Have also tried 15 with node v20.10.0 - and no obvious problems.

Just an update on this. I got ERPNext to install OK with the Beta release of 24.04.

python3-distutils is not yet in the noble repos as of the time of this posting. That causes line 224 in the quick install script to baulk: apt install git python3-dev python3-setuptools python3-venv python3-pip python3-distutils redis-server.

But manually installing everything else on that line before running the script (with the mods I mentioned) - then both Frappe & ERPNext appear to install just fine. I’m not a Python person & so I’ve no idea how important python3-distutils is - or what Canonical’s plans for it are.

Cheers - Len
