@vivin_joseph,

Did you make any changes in site_config.json? please validate the site_config.json on jsonlint.com

Also, please check your current site name in sites/current_site.txt exists in sites directory.

Thanks,
Makarand

vivin_joseph · March 10, 2017, 10:35am

where is it located

vivin_joseph · March 13, 2017, 10:23am

@makarand_b,
current_site.txt doesnot exists. what to do?

ashish-greycube · July 19, 2017, 9:05am

This issue occurs when frappe framework is installed without any app. Follow the steps mentioned at
ERP app install steps

Hi there,
Link is outdated/broken.
please, update with latest link (anyone)

f_deryckel · October 31, 2019, 2:32pm

you may want to migrate your site to Python3

kumar404 · October 31, 2019, 2:39pm

Migrated already using bench migrate-env python3 command.(before bench start)

f_deryckel · October 31, 2019, 2:47pm

did you do bench update --patch?

kumar404 · October 31, 2019, 2:52pm

after running: bench update --patch

There maybe more than one site in your setup. use following commands for the site you have installed your erpnext and custom-app.
bench use site-name (eg:- bench use eg.com)
bench serve --port (port-number)(eg :- bench serve --port 9090)
These solved my same issue.
Hope this helps.

Vama_Mehta · November 10, 2020, 5:57pm

probably, your current_site.txt file is absent in sites/ folder.
create it and add the name of your site in it.

cd sites/
touch current_site.txt
sudo nano current_site.txt
xyz.localhost (name of the site)
save
run your bench again (bench start)

Alex_benny · September 17, 2021, 8:34am

delete the current site from your local and database. then re-install properly.

A simple solution that I found was to

Keep the bench running with “bench start” in a terminal windows
Open a new terminal window
bench config serve_default_site on
bench use your_site_name
Return to the previous window and restart the bench

Now the page is being served. Hope this helps.

Abdirahmaan · August 30, 2022, 10:23am

this works

Prasanth_Kumar_J · November 20, 2023, 5:33am

This worked for me

bench use site_name
bench start

Mohammed_E_Al-Qershi · November 27, 2023, 5:51pm

If I have 2 site or more
How to solve that problem still happens to me?

Prasanth_Kumar_J · October 28, 2024, 11:45am

how do you run 2 sites

are you using port or any other way?

Mohtashim_Shoaib · November 19, 2024, 5:34pm

Enable Multi tenancy for accessing 2sites.
