I am installing tryton for the first time after running the command
> trytond-admin -c /etc/tryton/tryton.conf -d tryton --all
I am getting this error which i am unable to find google.
```auto

Sometimes this errors occurs
```auto
raise IOError('Database "%s" doesn\'t exist!' % db_filename)
IOError: Database "tryton.sqlite" doesn't exist!
```
I dont understand i am using `postgres` then why is it giving me error of `sqlite`

It seems your tryton.conf is misconfigured.
See documentation here: [Configuration file — Tryton server](https://docs.tryton.org/projects/server/en/latest/topics/configuration.html#topics-configuration)

This is certainly a problem. Try testing without this line.
Do try to test one change at a time.
Start with an almost empty file, and add one line at a time, test and see if it has the expected result.

To me it seems like you have a problem with the trytond installation.
How did you install trytond?
What version of trytond are you using?
Btw, please try to use the latest (6.6).
Also Python 2.x is deprecated, so you should use at least 3.7+

I guess the oldest LTS [release](https://discuss.tryton.org/t/release-process/395) is 5.0
So 4.8 is unsupported, also I do not have experience with that version.
From my point of view, we are trying to make current tryton better, so I am guessing you need to get [commercial support](https://www.tryton.org/service-providers) for 4.8.

Python2.7 [is deprecated since 1st January 2020](https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/)
Tryton 4.8 is the latest version that supported Python2.7 and is also deprecated since November 2019.
I will recomend switching to python3 which will support newer series which are alreay mantained.

The problem is that you are using a relatorio version which only support Python3, but as you are using python2 an error is raised. You should downgrade to a version that supports python2.
I guess you will have the same issue for other required libraries so it will be easier to upgrade your python version than downgrading all dependencies.
