Hi,

It may help to say what type of installation, the operating environment and instructions being followed to install frappe-bench.

The environment is Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS running in a DigitalOcean droplet

I was following the installation instructions for Ubuntu in
https://frappeframework.com/docs/user/en/installation

I was running “bench init frappe-bench”.
