Hello

Okay thank you,

I am trying to install on VM, Ubuntu 14.04

I have downloaded development version from this page https://erpnext.com/download

and istall it in my VM

but i can not access the site on my browser using provided link, i have tried with production version and its working

What is the error you are getting when you try to access erpnext with your browser ? If it works with production version , after installing production setup , try running these commands

bench switch-to-develop
bench update

This might help you

Hello

When i try to access in the browser below is the screenshot

and i have tried to run bench switch-to-develop but am getting below error

Thank you

Hi ,

@vjFaLk could help you solve this issue .

Thanks

@Ian_Manyama Hey, you need to first login into the development VM by using the username and password both as frappe, and then go into the frappe-bench directory and run bench start. Sorry for not adding these instructions on the download page.

Thank you for quick reply, i have done as you instruct this is my vm screenshot

But still i can not access application in browser i have tried using both http://localhost:8000/ and http://localhost:8080/

Thank you

Hmm, let me have a look at this issue. Basically, it seems the 8000 port isn’t being forwarded, see if you can tweak your VM settings to do so.

Hello

Yes i think it i s about port forwarding, i have checked my VM network setting, below is the screenshot

I have still yet to figure how to solve this

Thank you

Hello,

Your VM must be reachable by an IP Adress.
Then you reach the site with http://IPofVM:8000.

Hello Idat,

I have used IP and still the same can not reach the application

Thank you,

With my virtual machine, I need to use http://localhost:8080

It looks like yours is listening on port 9000. Try http://localhost:9000

hello Ben,

Even port 9000 is not responding

Thank you

@Ian_Manyama Sorry for the late response, it was as I was thinking, the 8000 port wasn’t forwarded.

In the settings screenshot above, you just need to add a NAT rule (from Port Forwarding) that forwards 8000 port to 8000 or any port you would like.
