Guide-to-Install-Frappe-ERPNext-in-Windows-11-Using-Docker

A complete Guide to Install Frappe Bench in Windows 11 Using Docker and install Frappe/ERPNext Application

Pre-requisites

  Docker Desktop
  git
  Wnidows 11 
  VS Code

STEP 1 Check Docker version

docker version
git version

STEP 2 Clone frappe_docker and move to frappe_docker folder

git clone https://github.com/frappe/frappe_docker.git
cd frappe_docker

STEP 3

Copy example devcontainer config from

devcontainer-example folder to .devcontainer folder

Copy example vscode config for devcontainer from

development/vscode-example folder to development/.vscode folder

STEP 4 Install VSCode Remote Containers extension

Open vscode and install 'Dev Containers' extension

STEP 5 After the extensions are installed, you can

Open frappe_docker folder in VS Code.

Launch the command, from Command Palette (Ctrl + Shift + P) Remote-Containers: Reopen in Container. You can also click in the bottom left corner to access the remote container menu.

Note:

if this error in running contaners try the below commnad in CMD

Error starting userland proxy: listen tcp 0.0.0.0:80: bind: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions

netsh http add iplisten ipaddress=::

The development directory is ignored by git. It is mounted and available inside the container. Create all your benches (installations of bench, the tool that manages frappe) inside this directory. Node v14 and v10 are installed. Check with nvm ls. Node v14 is used by default.

STEP 6 Initilase frappe bench with frappe version 14 and Switch directory

bench init --skip-redis-config-generation --frappe-branch version-14 frappe-bench
cd frappe-bench

STEP 7 Setup hosts

We need to tell bench to use the right containers instead of localhost. Run the following commands inside the container:

bench set-config -g db_host mariadb
bench set-config -g redis_cache redis://redis-cache:6379
bench set-config -g redis_queue redis://redis-queue:6379
bench set-config -g redis_socketio redis://redis-socketio:6379

For any reason the above commands fail, set the values in common_site_config.json manually.

{
  "db_host": "mariadb",
  "redis_cache": "redis://redis-cache:6379",
  "redis_queue": "redis://redis-queue:6379",
  "redis_socketio": "redis://redis-socketio:6379"
}

STEP 8 Create a new site

sitename MUST end with .localhost for trying deployments locally. MariaDB root password: 123

bench new-site d-code.localhost --no-mariadb-socket 

STEP 9 Set bench developer mode on the new site

bench --site d-code.localhost set-config developer_mode 1
bench --site d-code.localhost clear-cache   

STEP 10 Install ERPNext

bench get-app --branch version-14 --resolve-deps erpnext
bench --site d-code.localhost install-app erpnext

STEP 11 Start Frappe bench

bench start

You can now login with user Administrator and the password you choose when creating the site. Your website will now be accessible at location d-code.localhost:8000
