ERPnext Scheduler Inactive error

After installing ERPnext, when login for first time, i get error message

Scheduler Inactive
Background jobs are not running. Please contact Administrator.

To fix this, login to the user that is used to install erpnext, then change to the erpnext folder

su - erpnext
cd ~/erpnext

Now run

bench --site SITE_NAME_HERE enable-scheduler

This will set following cronjobs

erpnext@ip-172-31-38-185:~/erpnext$ crontab -l
0 10 * * * cd /home/erpnext/erpnext &&  /home/erpnext/erpnext/env/bin/bench update --auto >> /home/erpnext/erpnext/logs/auto_update_log.log 2>&1
0 */6 * * *  cd /home/erpnext/erpnext && /usr/local/bin/bench --site all backup >> /home/erpnext/erpnext/logs/backup.log 2>&1
erpnext@ip-172-31-38-185:~/erpnext$
