I would love to remove the Not Secure notice in my browser for my local installation. Would this work for local installations too? I own the key and crt files, would it be simple to swap them out?
No the certbot will not work for localhost environment. Also it won’t really make sense as the localhost is accessible only on your system. If you still want to access localhost via https:// then you can try the mkcert option as below;

@shashank_shirke or to anyone:
First of all thanks for this guide. I’ve been able to follow it all the way to Step 5.5 bench new-site.
I run into mariadb/mysql error "Access Denied . . ". Have read a few threads and i think it has something to do with not being able to invoke mysql (need to SUDO) because of Mariadb 10.6, but it is not clear how the problem is solved. Have tried the ff with no avail:
- Grant all Privileges to root (seems doesn’t make sense to me since root has all access, but nevertheless tried it, no avail same error)
- Created a new mysql user (Frappe), grant all privileges to it, specified it as the mariadb root user with password during BENCH NEW-SITE, no avail same error
Can you or someone please provide some insight as to how this was solved? Much thanks!
Chris
Hi @cphoa28
Which cloud service provider are you using? This is a commonly reported issue on AWS EC2 instances and Azure virtual machines. Primary reason being, both providers don’t allow actual root access and instead create a system user with sudo permissions.
In your case, which user are you logged into when running the mysql installation? You can run sudo -i to enter as root user and then create a new user that has will be added to root group. Use this newly created user (with root privileges) to run the MySQL installation after which you should not get the access denied error when running bench new-site
Thanks,
Shashank
@shashank_shirke ,
Thanks for the quick reply!!
Yes, running on Digital Ocean Droplet.
Logged in as root but SU as frappe. Followed your instructions on creating that frappe user. I’ll figure out how to give it root privs and see if that will work.
Super thanks mate! Been tearing my hair out for 4 days now trying to make this work. Will update and see.
Chris
DigitalOcean works the best since they allow direct root access. You don’t need to do anything special to allow root privileges. Step 1.4 does it for you already.
Unfortunately, same error.

If you want to install SSL on localhost, follow this tutorial, it helped me.
You must reset the MySQL password, I executed the steps described in the following guide depending on the version I had installed on my machine and I was able to continue with the installation.
https://devanswers.co/how-to-reset-mysql-root-password-ubuntu/
@Leo_Sarmiento
I had to follow same instructions for MariaDB instead of MySql, and miraculously, IT WORKED!!! I can now continue the install!
For some reason even if you set a password for root during MariaDB install, it somehow doesn’t take it???
Furthermore you have to set to safe mode to actually change the root password.
Anyway, super thanks for this!! I can continue the install now.
@shashank_shirke
Suggest to include this little tidbit in your instructions in case someone else encounters it.

Any clue?

Are you in production or development mode?
I set it to production.
You can ignore that message.
You can check if the HRMS app was correctly fetched by running
bench version --format table
I am able to install the ERPNext v14 successfully, but after installation, I am not able to access the welcome page. I was wondering last week I try the same above steps and was working fine. But today I tried the install I am not able to see the welcome screen. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
I don’t understand the different with develop mode and production mode
If at step 6.1 and step 6.2
Instead of :
bench get-app --branch version-14 erpnext
bench --site site1.local install-app erpnext
by :
bench get-app erpnext --branch version-14
bench --site site1.local install-app erpnext
If I do that, can I install production mode of ERPNext? and then I can skip step 7 ?
Hi @vinodjp
What error are you seeing on the welcome page? Please share a screenshot of the error that you’re seeing. Also, make sure that the correct ports are open in your firewall settings.
When you run bench get-app, you’re essentially pulling in the app from a particular GitHub repo and a particular branch within that repo. By default master branch will be fetched.
Regarding production mode and development mode, that is related to how you setup your server. In development mode, you have to manually start and stop the bench server, whereas in production mode all the processes are autorun by a manager service called Supervisor and NGINX server is configured to serve the site.
Both are conceptually different things: Code Branch vs Server Setup
