Prerequisites
- An up-to-date Ubuntu 20.04 server
- A sudo user.
- Access to a command prompt.
Step 1: Update and upgrade the system
Before beginning with the installation, update and upgrade the system to ensure it has the latest packages installed.
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
Step 2: Install PostgreSQL database server
Tryton requires a PostgreSQL database server to run. Install it using the following command:

sudo systemctl start trytond
sudo systemctl enable trytond
Step 4: Configure Tryton server
By default, the Tryton server listens on the localhost only. If you want to access Tryton from another computer, you need to bind it to a public IP address. For that, edit the Tryton server configuration file.
sudo nano /etc/tryton/trytond.conf
Add the following lines at the end of the file:
[web]
listen = *:8000
Change the port number according to your preference.
Step 5: Create Tryton database
To create a new Tryton database, use the trytond-admin command.
sudo trytond-admin -c /etc/tryton/trytond.conf -d tryton --all
Change the database name according to your preference.
Step 6: Access Tryton web client
You can access the Tryton web client by opening a web browser and entering the following URL:
