Hey @aravindasamu. Disclaimer: I don't have experience with ERPNext, and I wasn't able to see the specific instructions you linked since I don't have an account with their site. That said, I was able to track down some instructions on installing ERPNext on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on computingforgeeks.com:

How To Install ERPNext ERP System on Ubuntu 20.04/18.04

As mentioned in the guide, you'll need the following prerequisites for installing ERPNext:

  • Python 2.7
  • MariaDB Database Server
  • Nodejs, Nginx, yarn, redis, wkhtmltopdf

I ended up running through the instructions myself, and the installation was pretty smooth. The only thing I had to really edit was my MariaDB config as described in Step 3 in the guide. By default, my MariaDB conf file (/etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf) had the following config:

[mysqld]
character-set-server = utf8mb4
collation_server = utf8mb4_general_ci

Which I had to change to (as recommended by the guide):

[mysqld]
character-set-client-handshake = FALSE
character-set-server = utf8mb4
collation_server = utf8mb4_unicode_ci

Otherwise, after all of the prerequisites were installed, ERPNext installed just fine. Hopefully this helps and you're able to get things loaded up okay. :)
