In this blog, we are going to learn how to install ERPNext on the Ubuntu server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, we will create a new user and provide sudo access to it, we will use this user for all the ERPNext-related operations. We are creating a user “webkul” you can give it any name accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

sudo adduser webkul\nusermod -aG sudo webkul<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
After that switch to the new user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
su webkul\ncd \/home\/webkul<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Before installing ERPNext we need to install other packages which are required for Erpnext.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Git<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install git<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Python<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install python3-dev python3.10-dev python3-setuptools python3-pip python3-distutils<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Python Virtual Environment<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install python3.10-venv<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Software Properties Common<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
MariaDB (database)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt install mariadb-server mariadb-client<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Redis Server<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install redis-server<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Other Packages<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install xvfb libfontconfig wkhtmltopdf<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
MySQL database development files<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Now Configure the MariaDB Server by running the following command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo mysql_secure_installation<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
(When you run this command, the server will show the following prompts.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Enter current password for root: (Enter your SSH root user password)\n* Switch to unix_socket authentication [Y\/n]: Y\n* Change the root password? [Y\/n]: Y\n(It will ask you to set new MySQL root password at this step. This can be different from the SSH root user password.)\n* Remove anonymous users? [Y\/n] Y\n* Disallow root login remotely? [Y\/n]: N\n* Remove test database and access to it? [Y\/n]: Y\n* Reload privilege tables now? [Y\/n]: Y<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Now edit the MySQL config file as below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo nano \/etc\/mysql\/my.cnf<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Add the following content to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[mysqld]\n\ncharacter-set-client-handshake = FALSE\n\ncharacter-set-server = utf8mb4\n\ncollation-server = utf8mb4_unicode_ci\n\n[mysql]\n\ndefault-character-set = utf8mb4<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Now restart the DB server<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo service mariadb restart<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
CURL<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt install curl<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Node<\/p>\n\n\n\n
curl https:\/\/raw.githubusercontent.com\/creationix\/nvm\/master\/install.sh | bash\n\nsource ~\/.profile\n\nnvm install 16.15.0<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
NPM<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install npm<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Yarn<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo npm install -g yarn<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Frappe Bench (Bench is a CLI tool to manage Frappe apps)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo pip3 install frappe-bench<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Initialize Frappe Bench<\/p>\n\n\n\n
bench init --frappe-branch version-14 frappe-bench<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Switch to Frappe Bench directory<\/p>\n\n\n\n
cd frappe-bench<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Create a New Site<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(A site is required in ERPNext.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
bench new-site demo\n\nbench use demo<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Now Install ERPNext<\/p>\n\n\n\n
bench get-app --branch version-14 erpnext\n\nbench --site demo install-app erpnext\n\nbench start<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
