Used it in the past and had no issue with easy install so just as a test to see if it would work, fails on both desktop and server versions
I tried in google cloud and got me similar errors.
We all would benefit from your successful installation experience, if you could write down the exact steps, commands, logs, gotcha notes, in one place, like a how-to guide.
I also have the same issue. The Easy Install fails on:
PLAY RECAP *******************************************************************************************************
localhost : ok=4 changed=1 unreachable=0 failed=1 skipped=1 rescued=0 ignored=0
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “install.py”, line 413, in

No matter what i try, it fails (Ubuntu 18.04 server)
Run the command on the command line by itself, without the quotes and commas
ansible-playbook -c local site.yml -vvvv -e @/tmp/extra_vars.json –become –become-user=frappe
I had the same problem, tearing my hair trying to figure out the issue.
Done Excellent
this modification to the install got me over the line … after 2 years of misery!

Hi folks,
Is it now possible to install ERPnext? My last try was 2 months ago. I want to use the easy install routine.
Has anyone managed to get it running on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS?
thx to all
Hi Curt,
Possible, but no guarantees. Sometimes the easy install works, for some people. Other times it does not. As our comrade @bkm is fond of saying: Your mileage may vary
Many of us have ERPNext successfully running on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. I’m finishing an installation on that OS right now, actually. But not using the easy install.
Best way to find out is to give it another try.
It did not work, not 24 days ago and not now. I installed SuiteCRM without any problem on the fly to have something. But i want EPRNext :-(
What’s the error message you’re receiving?
[WARNING]: No inventory was parsed, only implicit localhost is available
[WARNING]: provided hosts list is empty, only localhost is available. Note that the implicit localhost does not
match ‘all’

I don’t know enough about Ansible to understand or debug that. Hopefully another forum user does, though!

Please do more searching. This topic has been posted on many times. I’m not going to repeat this here.
This issue is that the ansible-playbook command failed.
The suggestion now is to unpack that command into its various components and run it by youself on the command line. You will then see why the command is failing. (The install script is a wrapper and hides the actual error message.)
Thanks. I’ve searched for a solution since 3 to 4 months. All the “professionals” give no exact and detailed guide with step by step, and all the DIY-users try and try and try. What is so difficult for a pro to code a working installer?
Like you: i don’t know how to unpack an installer and merge it in the command line. Are you able to write step by step a guide of how to install ERPNext in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS? I did it in September 2019 ERPNext DNS-Multitenant - disable recursion on the DNS Server - #4 by Curt.Beck, that worked untill something changed, how ever. I did that because there were no working guides. And the official guide also didn’t worked back than.
Thanks for your help.

Just scroll up this page. I posted exactly how to do that.
And that’s exactly the need AND the problem - to support numerous platforms, versions, environments and so on but these constantly change! As well, of course this an ambitious product that is a victim of it’s own popularity LOL

You need to delete a previous install’s artifacts before doing a fresh install Search results for 'fatal: destination path ‘erpnext’ already exists and is not an empty directory' - Frappe Forum.
