@@AwesomeOpenSource Truly Awesome video tutorial ! Kudos to you for spreading the knowledge. I plan to follow the video and install ERPNext on my own. Obviously, there are many things that might go wrong not to mention that I am a newbie to opensuorce philosophy. I was wondering about the missing video from 24:20 to 25:28.
Does ERPNext connect to a custom database? For instance, all my company's data is in a MySQL DB on GCP. Can I hook up ERPNext to this database so that it reads and writes data to my original database instead of the MariaDB it uses by default? Also, is the MariaDB that ERPNext uses located within the docker container it comes in or elsewhere?
The way I ran it, everything was in the single docker-compose file (including the DB), but you don't have to run it that way. You can run it using an external Database if you prefer. I"m not the expert on how to do that. As for your first question, if you mean can ERPNext use data in a different schema? I don't know, but I would doubt it. That would be a better question for the folks who make ERPNext though.
This is a fairly old video, and I'm sure this has changed since I originally made it. Their documentation should help determine where those settings may be now.
Thank you for this video! You answered a lot of questions I had. But there is still one question. I want to use ERPNext for my company I just founded. Do you know if I have to do some backups myself or does the docker version do it for me? I'm afraid of losing data if something crashes. I know it is some years ago you posted the video, but maybe you can tell me how I can protect myself of losing data when using ERPNext in production. Thank you!
There may be backup functions in ERPNext, but you should always make sure you have multiple backup strategies working, and validate the backups that are made.

Hi I have done up to 16:32 and when i visit the URL it says "redirected you too many times" and when i visit the ip it says "404 page not found". Help please
Would this set up work with using an external reverse proxy that handles all my SSL? I have a VM that has nginx in it that accepts all 80 and 443 requests from separate hostnames, and depending on the hostname it then proxy redirect forwards to another VM in the network. From what I am gathering from this, traefik handles the ssl so it may conflict with my reverse proxy?
I haven't tried it, but no reason you shouldn't be able to proxy to the Traefik from NGinX. Only thing I can say is give it a shot. It's a free system, so you can install it to test, and see how it goes. only Cost is a little time.
@@AwesomeOpenSource tried it out and I think I got it.

Hi, a silly question, I'm new to docker, I followed your tutorial, it installed successfully using DO, thank you. How do I ssh into the folder for file manager say using Filezilla, for example? I input root as username, and password with pub key authentication, and specify a path: /home/frappe/frappe-bench folder. But it says authentication failure. Thanks in advance.
Oh, and if you are trying to copy from your desktop to that server, once you have the right path you can do something like scp /path/on/local me@myserver.com:/path/to the/folder/on/server
Please make a video by explaining these videos. If you want to use oodo or ERPNext for free than we can use right? If we download the source code of oodo or ERPNext from github then we are the sole owner of the code? We are having the complete leverage of modifying it and selling it to further anyone without any legal complexity? We only have to pay the server cost and all modules like Customer,Sales,Accounting etc. come with free of cost? And if we want any enhancements like features in the ERPNext a developer should have knowledge of Python and Javascript knowledge or any another knowledge also required?
Each project is a little different. It's important for you to read the particular open source license that the project is using, and to understand the legalities around that license type. Open Source (in it's truest form) means you can 1. access the source code, and review it for yourself. 2. Modify the source code. 3. Redistribute the source code, modified or not. There is a ton more that goes into it, but the "free" in Free and Open Source Software means "freedom", not free of cost. Maybe this will help a bit.
Not usin gthe docker method that I show. I'm not sure about installing manually somehow, but you'd have to read their documentation on a manual install, and make sure your shared hosting can deal with any dependencies like NodeJS, PHP, etc.
You can probably use it inside a LAN with just a private IP, but not sure how that would be setup. I'm planning an update video this summer, so I'll try to keep in mind to show how that could work.
That's where I installed it in the video. I used Digital Ocean VPS, but you can really do it on any VPS following the tutorial. Note, this video is getting older, so some steps may have changed, and you may want to check the Frappe ERP documentation to make sure.
I don't think you need to set it up in Docker, but in the software itself, but I'm not an expert on ERPNext, nor ERP in general. I did this install and basic setup as a request from a subscriber, but for more advanced setup you'll need to refer to their manual and guides.
So, technically, no, if you install the open source version and self host, you shouldn't have to pay each month, but if you can pay something it helps keep the open source option alive. As for docker, it's a containerization virtualization system. It lets you run web applications in closed off / containerized mini-VMs. It really just virtualizes the application, and not the OS and hardware. I highly recommend you watch some videos for docker, and get familiar with it before tackling something like ERPNext.
At the the time the video was made, ERPNext is Open Source, and thus free to use, but you'll receive limited support if any. Their pricing page says, host it yourself $0, and if you want Enterprise support / extras, contact them for pricing.
Thank you for the tutorial! All is working very well! But I have a question. How can I access source code for edit? for example, enable development mode or run bench commands?
When you use Docker, everything is in the container. So there should be several containers running for ERPNext. You can see them by typing “docker ps” in the terminal. Next you”lol need to enter the container in terminal with “docker -it exec /bin/bash” This will put you in the terminal of the container to run commands. You may have to install anything you want to use, like nano to edit files, etc, because those are not usually installed by default in the container. This helps keep the image as small as possible.
Awesome video but now everything is changed and couldn't find a way for proper production installation. Can you please make a new video asap. Btw I follow all your videos and try in my local lab
No, I don't really think that's what ERPNext is for. You might want something more along the lines of an eCommerce site with some sort of gallery options.
@@AwesomeOpenSource thank you, I’ll look into those. Do you have any recommendations for gallery site or a site to sell things like comics, shirts, etc..?
one of my container doesn't work, it ends up with Updating customizations for Address Updating customizations for Contact *** Scheduler is disabled ***
@@AwesomeOpenSource ok sir, and can we install it on server without sitename? i did with docker, but I cannot access to the page after installation on dev server.
i have followed the step and was able to successfully set up ERPNext without the VPS , but was unable to open the website erp.example.com. What can i do?
Want to make sure you didn't use the actual domain erp.example.com. You would need to own the domain "example.com". What you would want it so have your own domain, and set that as your domain in the docker-compose file.
Thank you for the video. Did you have to do anything special to get the LetsEncrypt SSL cert working? I can only access it through http and not https. It still says my site is Not Secure.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It depends on where you are running it. If you are running it behind a firewall with closed ports, then you'll have to allow port 80 and 443 for LetsEncrypt to be able to reach your site, then to issue the certificates.
I'll look at it, but I need to reiterate that I know nothing about ERP systems in general. I did this install as a requested video. On the use or ERP, how good or bad it may be...I'm not expert, not even a novice.
Nice video, but you kind of skirted over nginx part. I really dont want to host on default ports for security reasons. Can you explain more what I should do after edit the treafik file please. Edit: not as complicated as I thought it would be. Just edit the port as you say then simply add the port number in the end of url. You don't need to mess about with nginx manager if you dont want to.
Don X also, if I am intentionally rebooting the host, I do “Docker-compose down”, then reboot the host after it’s stopped all the containers, then do “docker-compose up -d” after reboot.
@@AwesomeOpenSource thank you so much for the response, you rock! will try it when I have the issue again. btw, is there a way we that benefit from you can support you?
Don X absolutely. First, like and subscribe it’s free for you, but makes RUclips algorithms know I’m making good content. Next, I have affiliate links in my show descriptions, so if you would like to use Digital Ocean, SSDNodes, or Hover domain hosting, using my links gives you a credit and me a credit...so we both win. Finally, I have Patreon if you’d like to be a Patron. Link is also in the show description. Any of these is absolutely wonderful, but just having folks watch and get something out of what I’m doing is the best thing of all.

@@rahelmulugeta7109 I'm sorry friend, but I have no idea what that might be. The error indicates there's something wrong with the configuration of the domain name you have setup.
Hi, thanks for this amazing video. It was very helpful. I currently have my production environment running. However, how do i switch between the development and production mode for this specific setup.
I think the concept is that you setup the environment twice, once for development, and once for production. You don't want to try and use the same environment for both of those. The multiple sample files are really for you to use as a template depending on which type of environment you are trying to setup.
Thanks for your response. So I should set up the development by setting the docker to look for files in env-local .env and install? Afterwards when done with the development copy the files back to production, then change file location directory back?
Toochukwu Obasi it depends on your goal. If you are trying to add new features, or change features you should really have 2 separate installs. One for development, which is then committed back to the project and then pulled down to your production environment. If you are trying to make changes to run locally in your own production only, you can probably do so with out changing which set of environment variables you use.

Glad you like the video Antonio, but you are definitely getting a bit over my head on this. I think ERPNext is Multi-tenant capable, but don't hold me to that. If I were to set it up, I would just setup separate containers with their own separate port mappings on each container. You can change the left side port number (the host machine port) to any port you have available, then just leave the right side port alone ( -p : when setting up the docker-compose.yml files.

FYI im not IT person, i will try to diggin more. Thx
@@edrive2769 from virtual box, you need to enable the network bridge in then box settings for that virtual machine in order to reach the virtual machine through your network.
If you are following my instructions you need docker. If you have docker, you may just need to log out and back in, or reboot, maybe the daemon is hung. You can opt to run ERPNext without docker, they have instructions on their site for running without docker as well.
You would run the command "docker-compose down" from inside the same frappe folder. Then run the up command again and it should pull the latest version if you have "edge" listed in the .env file. If that doesn't work, however, you can remove the images from docker with the "docker rmi " command, then run the "docker-compose up -d" command again, and it will pull latest images. All of this depends on you having the volumes setup properly. I would not remove or update the database container if you did any of this either, as that would result in loss of data. The documentation also has update instructions I believe. Hope that helps,
In theory, you could do it through portainer, you just have a lot of Environment variables, volume mapping and port mapping to setup in the portainer ui.
@@AwesomeOpenSource okkk... Because i was try as same you tutorial... But only one container is stopped working(site_creator).... And his logs say's "erp.mysite.in" site already exists.
Just saw this comment, sorry about that, but if it says site already exists, then you may have a container that is already running, or it may be in a stopped mode with that site name. You'll want to do the command docker-compose down Let everything stop, then make whatever change you need to make, and do the command docker-compose up -d again after that.
Copy the mapped volume folders you created on the current setup, to your new setup, and use the path to those copies to map to the container foldeers when you run the docker command to bring it up. Generally that will keep your data, and let you move it around.

I don't guess I understand the question. It's open source, so as far as I know you can use it for free. If you want them to host it for you, or you want support, you'd have to pay...I believe.

Hi, a silly question, I'm new to docker, I followed your tutorial, it installed successfully using DO, thank you. How do I ssh into the folder for file manager say using Filezilla, for example? I input root as username, and password with pub key authentication, and specify a path: /home/frappe/frappe-bench folder. But it says authentication failure. Thanks in advance.
SSH into the server first, then make your way into the folder.
ssh me@myserver.com
Then
cd /path/to the/ folder
Oh, and if you are trying to copy from your desktop to that server, once you have the right path you can do something like
scp /path/on/local me@myserver.com:/path/to the/folder/on/server
Excellent work,... many thanks...
Do you know of any IT/pc-parts inventory web interface application in docker ????
Snipe-IT is one I've seen a lot of people talk about.
Thanks. Love it....Keep it up the good work..
Thanks, will do!
Please make a video by explaining these videos.
If you want to use oodo or ERPNext for free than we can use right?
If we download the source code of oodo or ERPNext from github then we are the sole owner of the code?
We are having the complete leverage of modifying it and selling it to further anyone without any legal complexity?
We only have to pay the server cost and all modules like Customer,Sales,Accounting etc. come with free of cost?
And if we want any enhancements like features in the ERPNext a developer should have knowledge of Python and Javascript knowledge or any another knowledge also required?
Each project is a little different. It's important for you to read the particular open source license that the project is using, and to understand the legalities around that license type. Open Source (in it's truest form) means you can 1. access the source code, and review it for yourself. 2. Modify the source code. 3. Redistribute the source code, modified or not. There is a ton more that goes into it, but the "free" in Free and Open Source Software means "freedom", not free of cost. Maybe this will help a bit.
This no longer works. An update would be helpful because the documentation they have is very poor. Thank you for everything.
It's on my list of to-do's. Not sure when I'll get to it, but it's definitey on my list.
Hello, is it possible to install ERPnext on a Windows Shared Hosting?
Not usin gthe docker method that I show. I'm not sure about installing manually somehow, but you'd have to read their documentation on a manual install, and make sure your shared hosting can deal with any dependencies like NodeJS, PHP, etc.
Will this work with out DNS? Just with public ip? Additional congig needed?
You can probably use it inside a LAN with just a private IP, but not sure how that would be setup. I'm planning an update video this summer, so I'll try to keep in mind to show how that could work.
How to install Erpnext on a vps server
That's where I installed it in the video. I used Digital Ocean VPS, but you can really do it on any VPS following the tutorial. Note, this video is getting older, so some steps may have changed, and you may want to check the Frappe ERP documentation to make sure.
hey i really love seeing your videos about erpnext, but can you try install erpnext latest version to localhost windows please sir
I'm looking at doing an update video in the future. Yes, this video is getting farily old now.
@@AwesomeOpenSource i'll push notification if you try to install in windows locallhost and push to a vps
How to setup multi site in docker, I mean how can i add multiple site, like tenant1, tenant2. etc
I don't think you need to set it up in Docker, but in the software itself, but I'm not an expert on ERPNext, nor ERP in general. I did this install and basic setup as a request from a subscriber, but for more advanced setup you'll need to refer to their manual and guides.
Do we still have to pay 10 $ every month after installing it like this? and whats a docker?
So, technically, no, if you install the open source version and self host, you shouldn't have to pay each month, but if you can pay something it helps keep the open source option alive. As for docker, it's a containerization virtualization system. It lets you run web applications in closed off / containerized mini-VMs. It really just virtualizes the application, and not the OS and hardware. I highly recommend you watch some videos for docker, and get familiar with it before tackling something like ERPNext.
🙏🙏🔥thank you
Any time!
Hello , is this system by the default tables free?
At the the time the video was made, ERPNext is Open Source, and thus free to use, but you'll receive limited support if any. Their pricing page says, host it yourself $0, and if you want Enterprise support / extras, contact them for pricing.
There seems to be a dead spot at 24:30...
Yep, just an oversight during editing. You're not missing anything. Sorry about that.
Thank you for the tutorial! All is working very well! But I have a question. How can I access source code for edit? for example, enable development mode or run bench commands?
When you use Docker, everything is in the container. So there should be several containers running for ERPNext. You can see them by typing “docker ps” in the terminal.
Next you”lol need to enter the container in terminal with “docker -it exec /bin/bash”
This will put you in the terminal of the container to run commands. You may have to install anything you want to use, like nano to edit files, etc, because those are not usually installed by default in the container. This helps keep the image as small as possible.
Hər şey yaxşı olacaq ;)
Awesome video but now everything is changed and couldn't find a way for proper production installation. Can you please make a new video asap. Btw I follow all your videos and try in my local lab
Yep, it's pretty old at this point. Have an update planned for this summer.
Where might this be? None of this method works...I've been scratching my head for 3 weeks now.@@AwesomeOpenSource
Can you make a tutorial for erpnext with helm and k8s.
Perhaps in the future. I need to learn kubernetes first.
I tried many times but I am getting an "Internal Server Error" message despite all containers started successfully, please help
I need a bit more to work with. That's not a very helpful message.
Would this site be good for artists trying to show their portfolio and sell their art/merch?
No, I don't really think that's what ERPNext is for. You might want something more along the lines of an eCommerce site with some sort of gallery options.
@@AwesomeOpenSource thank you, I’ll look into those. Do you have any recommendations for gallery site or a site to sell things like comics, shirts, etc..?
@@gungalgeno-7077 not off the top of my head, but I’ll do a little research.
Hi Sir , my erpnext Could not start up: Failed to setup defaults . May i know how to fix it ?
Can you tell me more about what you did during setup and where you are running it?
@Easy Excel is that a message you are getting? Or is it stuck on a step of the wizard?
Hi I just completed the process, and but its showing ubuntu default page, should I wait for the app to install, or any troubleshooting suggestions?
Give it about 10 minutes, and try again, but if it still doesn't come up, check the docker logs. You can use the
docker-compose logs
command.
These are the last lines where error is mentioned
one of my container doesn't work, it ends up with

Hmmm. I haven't tried to start up ERPNext in a long time. Something definitely could have changed.
@@AwesomeOpenSource ok sir, and can we install it on server without sitename?
i did with docker, but I cannot access to the page after installation on dev server.
i have followed the step and was able to successfully set up ERPNext without the VPS , but was unable to open the website erp.example.com. What can i do?
Want to make sure you didn't use the actual domain erp.example.com. You would need to own the domain "example.com". What you would want it so have your own domain, and set that as your domain in the docker-compose file.
@@AwesomeOpenSource yes i used erp.example.com. So can't i create the site without owning the domain ?
@@abhijeetpanigrahi4164 correct.
Thank you for the video. Did you have to do anything special to get the LetsEncrypt SSL cert working? I can only access it through http and not https. It still says my site is Not Secure.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It depends on where you are running it. If you are running it behind a firewall with closed ports, then you'll have to allow port 80 and 443 for LetsEncrypt to be able to reach your site, then to issue the certificates.
Can you do a review of Axelor ERP system?
I'll look at it, but I need to reiterate that I know nothing about ERP systems in general. I did this install as a requested video. On the use or ERP, how good or bad it may be...I'm not expert, not even a novice.
Nice video, but you kind of skirted over nginx part. I really dont want to host on default ports for security reasons. Can you explain more what I should do after edit the treafik file please.
Edit: not as complicated as I thought it would be. Just edit the port as you say then simply add the port number in the end of url. You don't need to mess about with nginx manager if you dont want to.
I want to ask about the time available for me to use ERP, is it possible for the block to happen
Hi , for implementation if your data is ready it takes only one month to be live.
Thank you so much for this. however, I noticed that when the system restarts traefik enters a restart loop. what can I do please?
Don X you might just stop and start the traefik container.
Don X also, if I am intentionally rebooting the host, I do “Docker-compose down”, then reboot the host after it’s stopped all the containers, then do “docker-compose up -d” after reboot.
@@AwesomeOpenSource thank you so much for the response, you rock! will try it when I have the issue again. btw, is there a way we that benefit from you can support you?
Don X absolutely. First, like and subscribe it’s free for you, but makes RUclips algorithms know I’m making good content.
Next, I have affiliate links in my show descriptions, so if you would like to use Digital Ocean, SSDNodes, or Hover domain hosting, using my links gives you a credit and me a credit...so we both win.
Finally, I have Patreon if you’d like to be a Patron. Link is also in the show description.
Any of these is absolutely wonderful, but just having folks watch and get something out of what I’m doing is the best thing of all.
Thanks for this video. Extremely helpful. How do I edit the source code now? And create a new build with the changes incorporated?
That, my friend, is a question for their Github channel. I'm definitely not the person to help with that.
hey man when I ssh root@IP it says permission denied (Publickey) pls tell me how can i fix it.. no solutions doesn't seem to work
Sounds like you setup a public key on your server, and the machine you are trying to SSH in from doesn't have the proper corresponding public key. Did you setup the key pairs on your local machine, or on the server machine you are running ERPNext on?
@@AwesomeOpenSource yes... i did... first i create a public key using the cmd then i copy and paste it in text feild... but no solution worked for me... i need ur help

24:18 - 25:29 Blackout... whats up there?
Just missed it in editing. Just my mistake. You missed nothing there.
Hi, thanks for this amazing video. It was very helpful. I currently have my production environment running. However, how do i switch between the development and production mode for this specific setup.
I think the concept is that you setup the environment twice, once for development, and once for production. You don't want to try and use the same environment for both of those. The multiple sample files are really for you to use as a template depending on which type of environment you are trying to setup.
Thanks for your response. So I should set up the development by setting the docker to look for files in env-local .env and install?
Afterwards when done with the development copy the files back to production, then change file location directory back?
Toochukwu Obasi it depends on your goal. If you are trying to add new features, or change features you should really have 2 separate installs. One for development, which is then committed back to the project and then pulled down to your production environment. If you are trying to make changes to run locally in your own production only, you can probably do so with out changing which set of environment variables you use.
Hello Nice Work and im learning From u :)
i Trying to make self host to his erp by docker but i got some error and i cant understand something docker-compose.yml file that file im making or its with project cuz i dont see it in files !
i resolve the issue docker was using wrong yml file :) thanks :D
Glad you got it fixed.
@@AwesomeOpenSource
Thanks but i have question
When i got it fixed and work
Its normal
Not have any module idk why
There not aset, hr, accounting.. Ect
Nice video, thanks! If I need to setup several sites, how I configure the different ports of the container, for each site?
Glad you like the video Antonio, but you are definitely getting a bit over my head on this. I think ERPNext is Multi-tenant capable, but don't hold me to that. If I were to set it up, I would just setup separate containers with their own separate port mappings on each container. You can change the left side port number (the host machine port) to any port you have available, then just leave the right side port alone ( -p : when setting up the docker-compose.yml files.
Is it possible to install it as on premise?
Yes, that can be done. Same method.
@@AwesomeOpenSource thanks :)
@@edrive2769 no problem. The only difference will be that you need to route traffic into your network to your server.

@@edrive2769 from virtual box, you need to enable the network bridge in then box settings for that virtual machine in order to reach the virtual machine through your network.
ERROR: Couldn't connect to Docker daemon. You might need to install Docker:
If you are following my instructions you need docker. If you have docker, you may just need to log out and back in, or reboot, maybe the daemon is hung.
You can opt to run ERPNext without docker, they have instructions on their site for running without docker as well.
Video outdated. ERP updated their software with new documentation
Yes, this one's pretty old these days, it's always best to check the project docs for updates.

How do you update erpnext in docker?
You would run the command "docker-compose down" from inside the same frappe folder. Then run the up command again and it should pull the latest version if you have "edge" listed in the .env file. If that doesn't work, however, you can remove the images from docker with the "docker rmi " command, then run the "docker-compose up -d" command again, and it will pull latest images.
All of this depends on you having the volumes setup properly. I would not remove or update the database container if you did any of this either, as that would result in loss of data.
The documentation also has update instructions I believe.
Hope that helps,
@@AwesomeOpenSource where do I find the frappe folder to run docker-compose down command?
@@madhurammoorthy7490 just run it from the same place you ran Docker-compose up command
@@madhurammoorthy7490 basically from where your Docker-compose.yml file is.
Can we installation via Portainer?
In theory, you could do it through portainer, you just have a lot of Environment variables, volume mapping and port mapping to setup in the portainer ui.
@@AwesomeOpenSource okkk...
Because i was try as same you tutorial...
But only one container is stopped working(site_creator)....
And his logs say's "erp.mysite.in" site already exists.
Just saw this comment, sorry about that, but if it says site already exists, then you may have a container that is already running, or it may be in a stopped mode with that site name. You'll want to do the command
docker-compose down
Let everything stop, then make whatever change you need to make, and do the command
docker-compose up -d
again after that.
Nice Video.... Thanks for the easy setup.............. But i was wondering how can we restore data to a new setup
Copy the mapped volume folders you created on the current setup, to your new setup, and use the path to those copies to map to the container foldeers when you run the docker command to bring it up. Generally that will keep your data, and let you move it around.

Is there a way to use ERPNext entirely for free?
I don't guess I understand the question. It's open source, so as far as I know you can use it for free. If you want them to host it for you, or you want support, you'd have to pay...I believe.
