Unable to access the ERPNEXT page after easy install

Install / Update

I have setup erpnext on a an ubuntu 16.04. While the development easy install went through without any error. Also it allows me to start using bench start. But on trying the url http:localhost:8000 I get the following error (“localhost does not exist”) . The complete stack is provided below:

did you try the production setup?

we just switched on dns multi-tenant by default. (now I know why it was not the default :))

Quick fix;

bench config dns_multitenant off
bench setup nginx

and try again

3

I did not try the production setup. The quick fix with above two commands did not work. Still the same error.

4

Still the same error after making the above mentioned setup. Have also rebooted the server. Any other solution?

5

Resolved the issue by running the below two commands, looks like the easy install does not create the default site.
bench new-site localhost
bench --site localhost install-app erpnext
