Installing Press App - Frappe Cloud Local Setup

mwogi · November 4, 2022, 5:26am

Not yet. We are still doing configurations and changes especially to the frontend.

BSombi · December 6, 2022, 3:59pm

How did you install it. Any links?

mwogi · December 6, 2022, 7:56pm

Hi @BSombi Just follow the guide here: Local Development Environment Setup

It should work for most parts but hopefully they will improve on it more to include things like how to setup analytics.

Thank you.

Hello @mwogi,

Can you please share some info regarding the TLS Certificates with CertBot
I have been trying to setup a frappe/press environment.
So far everything was smooth, I was able to installed and initiate the configuration… but know I’m in the creation of the proxy server

Route53 and Certbot are working fine, but when I try to create a new proxy server on press I got this error “Valid wildcard TLS Certificate not found for domain.name”

mwogi · January 4, 2023, 12:33pm

Check if you have pointed the root domain on Route53 to the right IP address. It should resolve to you IP of your Press server. From what I remember the wildcard TLS certificate was automatically created

Can we use other VPS and cloud for this Frappe Press installation?

mwogi · January 9, 2023, 7:12am

Yes, should work with any other VPS so long as the server that you have installed press on can SSH into the other nodes.

josog · January 28, 2023, 6:14pm

i get this error when try to configure the proxy server:
imagen

Hey, your landing is awesome, share a little…

mwogi · January 31, 2023, 8:38pm

We actually didn’t do much. Just used the website template builder using the ‘Hero with right image’ template

Mortodus · February 20, 2023, 9:25pm

Me too, did you resolve this?

iMoshi · March 7, 2023, 6:24am

Documentation says you’d need at least 3 servers, all for 3 different (f, m, n) purposes. Do you guys have any recommendation for server hardware for each? I’m guessing we don’t need a top level hardware for n server for example, but a top notch one is needed to run f server.

You can comment out this line in team.py

These changes were meant for internal purposes and weren’t removed before we made it open-source.

Any one help me on this?

You can setup a TLS Certificate with wild card checked.
Go the TLS Certificate List and create one.

PS: You may run into certbot issues, to resolve this make sure you

Uninstall all existing certbot installed with apt
use snap to install certbot and all its dependencies including the route 53 plugin and not apt or pip

Follow the instructions here to install

flexy2ky · June 6, 2023, 12:05pm

@oderao I followed your suggestion and installed certbot and the route53 plugin using snap but the TLS certificate request fails in Root Domain setup. The root domain is portal.mydomain.com and it is pointed to the instance that hosts press. If I try to obtain the certificate manually I get index out of range. The Frappe instance is running in development mode hence the url is portal.mydomain.com:8000. Could it be a problem?

This is the full traceback to the index error:

Form/TLS Certificate/*.portal.mydomain.com

    team = team_dict[0].name
IndexError: list index out of range

Also, frappe 14 seems to have major and significant changes not reflected in the press deployment documentation. This makes it extremely difficult to follow and especially with the way the domain settings is described.

oderao · June 6, 2023, 8:32pm

Frappe Press is largely WIP so its very buggy right now

When the root domain setup fails , What is the response? you can check the error logs

Usually it logs all failed attempts in the Error Log

Also have you added a TLS Certificate for the wildcard domain in your case it should be *.mydomain.com
I suggest you do this first before adding a certificate for root domain

The index error you are getting has to do with teams
you have to add a team, go to Teams List and add a default team

flexy2ky · June 7, 2023, 6:28am

@oderao Here is the error logged for the failed TLS Certificate issuance

Exception:
Traceback with variables (most recent call last):
  File "apps/press/press/press/doctype/tls_certificate/tls_certificate.py", line 55, in _obtain_certificate
    ) = ca.obtain(

    os.stat(path)
      path = None
builtins.TypeError: stat: path should be string, bytes, os.PathLike or integer, not NoneType

Is this supposed to be done outside of the Root Domain/Press Settings configuration? The documentation expects the Root Domain setup to be done first and the TLS certificate issuance is attempted barely minutes after the Root Domain setup is done and it fails. I also noticed that the Documentation says to select Default in the Default Cluster field during the Root Domain setup but there is no Default value and creating default requires additional inputs and the documentation does not have any information on what to provide.

I have also added the Team List as you suggested but the TLS certificate issuance is still returning Index out of range error even though a team list is now created.

Any further tips on resolving these will be appreciated.
