ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'frappe.core.api'

fasilkaks · February 17, 2023, 1:42pm

Hi

Migration from V12 to 13 went well. But once completed, and trying to submit any document I am getting this error “ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘frappe.core.api’” on the web interface. Could not find any help online. Anyone please help.

smino · February 17, 2023, 2:51pm

Hi,

May we know how the migration was performed? Steps and commands?

fasilkaks · February 17, 2023, 3:08pm

@Smino

Long process short story:

Install fresh 13
Backup 12 DB from the old sever with “bench backup with files”
Copy the files no the new server
Restore 12 DB to new 13 with “bench restore with files”
migrate using “bench --site sitename migrate”
There will be many DB errors during step 5. Manually updated the entries in the new server DB as required referring the V13 DB.
repeat step 5 and 6 until the migration is successful
do “bench update” and should be run without errors
Done

Anyone encountered this error, please help.

In general, to update to a new version , one may use the steps found here:

https://discuss.frappe.io/t/release-notes-erpnext-version-13-has-been-released/73471

bench switch-to-branch version-13 frappe erpnext --upgrade
bench update
bench build

There may be other steps or options to the above commands that will help as well, for example bench update --patch .

@smino, thank you for the guide.
Unfortunately these didn’t work. All of the above mentioned did run without any errors. Still having the same issue.

There are no errors captured in the logs during submitting any docs (Quotation, Sales Invoice or any other docs.) Only error pops up is in the web page itself

The detailed error copied from web page is below:

Can you post the contents of the site_config.json of your ERPNext site?

Does bench setup requirements complete without error?

fasilkaks · February 18, 2023, 4:36pm

Yes, “bench setup requirements” did run without any errors.

The only other things I can think of to try are : sudo pip3 install frappe-bench --upgrade

and possibly: bench setup production username , unless you intend to run in develop mode.

fasilkaks · February 18, 2023, 8:17pm

@smino, Tried both and ran successfully. Same result, with the web error.

Its very strange that it don’t give any error in the logs.

Any other thoughts???

fasilkaks · February 18, 2023, 9:58pm

Finally found it

It was due to the app pdf_on_submit, which was causing this error.

removed the app and restarted bench.

@smino, thanks for the support dear.

smino · February 19, 2023, 2:54pm

Looks like pdf_on_submit is at 13.4 , perhaps reinstalling it with the newer version will work?

fasilkaks · February 19, 2023, 4:44pm

@smino

I had installed pdf_on_submit long back before the KSA_VAT app released. I am not using it currently for my site.

Anyway, could give a try with a clone sometime later.
