In this video, we are going through how to install an SSL certificate for ERPNext. So, let’s get into it.

We have already installed the ERPNext on the server. If you want to install ERPNext on your server check out my other video. A link will be in the description. Check that out!

First, login into your server with any ssh client. I am using Windows 10 built-in SSH client. We are using Ubuntu 22.04 version which is a recommended OS by ERPNext.

After login check for any updates or upgrade on the server and reboot the server by executing this command.

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo reboot

Now login into your frappe main user.

sudo su erpnext

Now change the directory where you installed the frappe bench.

cd /home/erpnext/frappe-bench

Now connect your preferred domain which you want to access. For example, I want to access ERPnext with byteflick.shadefocus.com

So, first, add the A type record on your domain DNS. I am using cloudflare dns on my domain. We will now add the A record which will link the domain to our server IP.

I want to access the ERPNext with this URL if you want to use another URL change this name to your preferred URL.

Remember to turn off this proxy option otherwise, it will not work.

Now we will turn on the DNS support on our ERPNext by using this command.

bench config dns_multitenant on

Now we will use this command to connect our domain with our site.

bench setup add-domain yourdomain.com –site yoursitename

Change youdomain.com to your preferred URL which we added the A record on cloudflare or any other dns provider and change the yoursitename to your site where you want to connect the domain.

Now we will resetup the nginx configuration and restart nginx service.

bench setup nginx && sudo service nginx reload

Install packages that are important for letsencrypt SSL generation.

sudo snap install core
sudo snap refresh core
sudo snap install –classic certbot
sudo ln -s /snap/bin/certbot /usr/bin/certbot

Now we will generate the SSL certificate by uing this command.

sudo certbot –nginx

Here type your email address where you want to receive important notices.

Type “Y” to agree with Terms and Conditions.
Again type Y and press enter.

Now type the number where your domain is showing. My domain is showing on number 1. I will type 1 and press enter.

Now access your ERPNext with your domain on your browser.

Congratulations! We have successfully installed the SSL on the ERPNext on Linux server. So, that’s all. I hope you have enjoyed my video.
