How to test v11? VM, Docker, Easy Install & even manual install producing errors on develop branch!

Install / Update Setup
1

Hello community,

Me too excited for v11. Everyone is talking about that, and desperately looking to get it on my instance any one of these(VM, Docker, Easy Install, Manual install) but non of these working and continuously producing errors every-time. Even bench update is producing errors.

Everytime, I tried, error got changed, sometimes got installed successfully on hitting install commands twice-thrice.

Any help appreciated.

Well you’re not alone in this boat. I’ve been trying to deploy the develop branch for weeks but no success. I have tried every platform possible except of course beta.erpnext.com which works fine…obviously.

please share errors

did you make sure you had installed all prerequisites ?

My latest attempt which ended in failure is contained in this thread:

https://discuss.frappe.io/t/fatal-error-installing-erpnext-v11-develop-branch-on-gcp-using-easy-install-script/39138/12

There’s another thread i opened when my attempt to install on a pc failed and there’s another i opened when my attempt to set up the downloaded VM failed.

Yes, I have done and played well with errors. Tried all basic prerequisite and noticing errors sometimes it’s redis, some time permissions, sometimes pip upgradation warnings and many more. Tried several time on fresh instance as well. Unfortunately, nothing worked.

The era when easy install works like charm. Now, nothing is working without errors. I know, there are huge changes in core and heavily refraction going on, doesn’t mean to affect installation process.

Anyone can update VM for develop? Or, share their machine ova?

Please post specific traces.

The exact error below was experienced on GCP, Virtualbox VM and local machine fresh install using the easy install script:

Using manual install on a fresh server on all these platforms installed successfully after several failed attempts due to prerequisites which had to be installed multiple times on some instances for the install to go past that stage. however, Bench start fails to start the instance as it gets stuck here in all cases:

Even the OVA downloaded fails to initialize as it gets stuck here as well. As some point i thought it was the hardware specs so for GCP i temporarily boosted my hardware to 4 CPU and allocated 8GB RAM to the instance but nothing changed.

The initial error is due to permissions so you may need to ensure that you’re running as frappe user and perhaps also do a chown on that directory too to ensure its writable by your frappe user

Yes agreed both cases run afoul permissions so best to resolve that Fatal Error Installing ERPNext V11 Develop Branch on GCP Using Easy Install Script - #12 by clarkej
