[Tutorial] How To install ERPNext V12 on windows 10 home / Pro WSL ubuntu 18.04LTS

Install / Update

There’s two potential causes for this and I don’t remember how I solved it.

  1. Some underlying package of cryptography has a problem with WSL
  2. It could be isolated to the frappe-bench’s virtual environment. This one is easier to solve, so try it first: bench pip install cryptography

This is the error. Kindly anyone guide please
frappe@DESKTOP-GD56773:~$ sudo -H python3 install.py --production --site frappe.local --user frappe

getting the same error…

You cannot install a production ERPNext site to WSL because it relies on systemd, which is not available in WSL distributions.

28

I think one of the problems is within the script, the location of playbooks is at ‘/tmp/.bench/bench/playbooks’ and not ‘/tmp/.bench/playbooks’
