frappe@erp:/root$ sudo bench setup procfile
You should not run this command as root

yes correct you shouldn’t run as root
check the permissions on the directory and the files its self
btw what os are you running

Did you find the solution?
Thanks,

Welcome to ERPNext farqalit,

To login as frappe typically refers to server side direct access to an instance.

For this ‘terminal console’ access you need to install and run your own self-hosted instance.

In the case of ERPNext hosted on for example erpnext.com, account users may not have access to the server other than from a web browser client?

hope this helps
