Fresh Installation error

Hi all,
I am trying to install fresh copy of ERPnext on Google cloud server. Below are the last error log:

Edit: Trying on both Ubuntu 16.04 & 18.04 … no luck!

Edit-2: My user name is erp, not frappe. I update it in my below message.

Installation steps:
Frappe / ERPNext Installation 

usr: root
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install python-minimal
sudo apt-get install build-essential python-setuptools


 sudo adduser erp
sudo usermod -aG sudo erp


su - erp

usr: erp

3) cd && wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frappe/bench/master/playbooks/install.py
Start the installation by issuing the command below:

4) sudo python install.py --production --user erp

Any update in this regards,

Your install path is /home/erp but your user is frappe (who would have /home/frappe as it’s home subdir unless you specifically set frappe’s homedir to /home/erp), so you probably have a permissions problem

Hi,
Today I try to install fresh ERPNext several time on my Google Cloud account. Every time my installation got failed (check my first message). Although this was permission issue, but why, I do not figure it out. Below are the steps I overcome to this issue:

  1. After getting the error, I change the user (root) and provide these command
    sudo chown -R $USER:$GROUP ~/.npm
    sudo chown -R $USER:$GROUP ~/.config
  1. With normal user, I reinstall ERPNext, this time with out error but incomplete modules and with out login form.
  1. Then, bench update --reset. This time everything installed and working.

-Thanks

I had the same issue in Ubuntu 18.04, I run it and it worked, let me test it.!

Thanks

Follow these steps

  1. sudo python install.py --production --user erp
    2 .pip install -q -e /home/erp/frappe- bench/apps/frappe

then bench update --reset?

Was there any error occurred after you use the command pip install -q -e /home/erp/frappe- bench/apps/frappe ?

Here is what I do and it works every time on Ubuntu 18.04 after of course using the apt-get update and apt-get upgrade.

To Install v12 on Ubuntu 18.04 (from def_user account)

sudo -H apt-get install python3-minimal
sudo -H apt-get install python3-setuptools
sudo -H apt-get install build-essential
sudo -H apt-get install redis-server
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frappe/bench/master/playbooks/install.py
sudo -H python3 install.py --production --user [def_user]
sudo nano /etc/hostname   (change hostname here to URL)
sudo nano /etc/hosts          (make sure hostname here is URL tied to ip address)
sudo nano /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg  (change line “preserve_hostname” from false to true)

after install – edit ~/.bench/bench/config/nginx.py  (change “Unicode” to “bytes”)

I installed this 2 times yesterday on 2 fresh VPS servers. I do all of this BEFORE I ever login to the Administrator and finish the setup wizard.

One of the installations was done to make an upgrade path from a v11 server. See this post to know how to also do that upgrade: (and yes, it was a success also :wink: )

Hope this helps. :grin:
