Hey developers, I’m using V12 and it got alot of customization on each department, and I want to upgrade to V13 without loosing anything.
This works for me:
During installation answer all yes. Copy SSL certificates paths , are deleted during installation.

yarn: v1.16.0
npm: 6.13.4

sudo npm install -g npm
sudo npm install -g yarn
Upgrade frappe-bench
sudo -H pip3 install --upgrade frappe-bench
Installation directory
cd -your-directory-
Update

Error (later resolved)

New version

Upgrading from
ERPNext: v12.9.4 (version-12)
Frappe Framework: v12.6.1 (version-12)
node: v8.17.0
yarn: v1.22.0
nom: v6.13.4
python: 2.7.13
Debian: v9.12
Thank you for sharing, this worked for me. But is there anything besides these steps I should take care of. LIke any database keys, name, password, or site-local config, or anything else, that will help me run ERPNext smoothly.

I am experiencing the same thing, I have opened a GitHub issues here;

If anyone is facing error at this, you’re most likely using Python 2. Version-13 only supports python3.6+. Python2 is EOL and most software have stopped supporting it. Sunsetting Python 2 | Python.org
Ideally you should use python 3.7 or 3.8 so you don’t have to deal with update again in near future.
Where should all commands be executed? My frappe-bench folder is called erpnext. If I run the command pip3 install --upgrade erpnext, this error occurs:
[bench@node4037 ~]$ pip3 install --upgrade erpnext
Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement erpnext (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for erpnext
[bench@node4037 ~]$

sudo -H pip3 install --upgrade frappe-bench
did not work
sudo -H pip3 install --upgrade pip
worked for me
Hi,
I am facing below issue
attributeerror: ‘user’ object has no attribute ‘module profile’ at the time of migrate
due to this issue showing system is updating
can anyone help
For all the permission denied and not writeable errors, try the following command
sudo chown -R <erpuser>:<erpuser> <path to bench>
Worked like a charm for me 
Was it Local version or Live version?
Thanks, I’ve followed these instructions quite successfully until this point:
**~/frappe-bench**$ bench switch-to-branch version-13 frappe erpnext --upgrade

Installing frappe
$ /home/erpnext/frappe-bench/env/bin/python -m pip install --quiet --upgrade -e /home/erpnext/frappe-bench/apps/frappe

ERROR: No matching distribution found for chardet~=5.1.0
ERROR:
Looks like the chardet library is not compatible with the python version (3.6.9) on my system. Any ideas how to get past this?
