odoo_v10

Odoo 10 on Ubuntu 16.04

Prerequisites

Before starting, update your system:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Install Git in order to clone Odoo source code from Github

sudo apt-get install git

Next, install the necessary dependencies for Odoo:

sudo apt-get install python-dateutil python-docutils python-feedparser python-gdata python-jinja2 python-ldap python-libxslt1 python-lxml python-mako python-mock python-openid python-psycopg2 python-psutil python-pybabel python-pychart python-pydot python-pyparsing python-reportlab python-simplejson python-tz python-unittest2 python-vatnumber python-vobject python-webdav python-werkzeug python-xlwt python-yaml python-zsi python-pypdf python-decorator python-requests -y

Install the most recent version of gdata:

sudo apt-get install python-pip -y

sudo pip install gdata --upgrade

sudo pip install passlib

Create a system user for Odoo application

create a new Odoo system user to run its processes

sudo adduser --system --home=/opt/odoo --group odoo

You can view the user and group

sudo cat /etc/passwd

Install & Prepare Postgres

We install postgresql databank, this will probably be version 9.2. Make sure that you have not installed postgresql already, if so you can either uninstall it (recommended) or skip this step.

sudo apt-get install postgresql -y

sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.5 -y

After installing Postgres check the version of the Postgres using

psql --version

Now depending on the version you need to install postgresql-server-dev, if your version is 9.5.3 then 9.5 and if 9.4.0 then 9.4, run the below command

sudo apt-get install postgresql-server-dev-9.5

This will automatically create a (system) user named postgres. Now we log in as that user and create a database user.

sudo su - postgres

createuser --createdb --username postgres --no-createrole --no-superuser --pwprompt odoo

You will be prompted for a password, write this password down. We will now go back to root user, type

exit

you can created superuser without

createuser -s odoo

Note: Create user parameter:-s means creating super user

Postgresql Management

Changing password of postgresql user

After su as postgres user, run command in psql as following

ALTER USER odoo WITH PASSWORD 'new_password';

List databases and tables in postgresql

psql

\du => List all users

\l => List all databases

\dt => List all tables in current database

\connect => Change current database

\q=> Quit psql mode

Enable remote connect to postgresql

Edit postgresql.conf to listen the port from all interfaces

cd /etc/postgresql/9.5/main/

nano postgresql.conf

Change the line that contains listen_addresses=’localhost’ to listen_addresses=’*’ Edit pg_hba.conf to allow remote connection from other servers

nano pg_hba.conf

Add the following line, host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5

Note: To allow IPv6 or all IPs, use

host all all ::0/0 md5 #ipv6 range

host all all all md5 #all ip

check postgresql is running with:

systemctl status postgresql

If PostgreSQL is running, you'll see output that includes the text Active: active (exited).

If you see Active: inactive (dead), start the PostgreSQL service using the following command:

systemctl start postgresql

PostgreSQL also needs to be enabled to start on reboot. Do that with this command:

systemctl enable postgresql

Install Odoo

Clone the Odoo files onto your server

git clone https://www.github.com/odoo/odoo --depth 1 --branch 10.0 --single-branch

Install wkhtmltopdf

wkhtmltopdf is required in odoo to print the reports. depending on your OS bit you can install wkhtmltopdf for odoo 10.

How do I check if I have a 32-bit or a 64-bit OS?

uname -i

Download the recommended version of wkhtmltopdf for Odoo server. In this example, we use 0.12.1. See the Odoo repository for an up-to-date list of compatible versions

sudo wget https://downloads.wkhtmltopdf.org/0.12/0.12.1/wkhtmltox-0.12.1_linux-trusty-amd64.deb

Install the package using dpkg

sudo dpkg -i wkhtmltox-0.12.1_linux-wheezy-amd64.deb

Install NPM and LESS processor

apt-get install npm

ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node

npm install -g less less-plugin-clean-css

Odoo Server Configuration

Change ownership to odoo user

sudo chown -R odoo: *

Setup configuration file

Copy odoo.conf to /etc directory:

sudo cp /opt/odoo/odoo/debian/odoo.conf /etc/odoo-server.conf

sudo chown odoo: /etc/odoo-server.conf

sudo chmod 640 /etc/odoo-server.conf

Modify the configuration file

[options]
admin_passwd = admin
db_host = False 
db_port = False
db_user = odoo
db_password = FALSE
addons_path = /opt/odoo/addons
;Uncomment the following line to enable a custom log
logfile = /var/log/odoo/odoo-server.log
xmlrpc_port = 8069

We create a log file:

sudo mkdir /var/log/odoo

sudo chown odoo:root /var/log/odoo

cd /var/log/odoo

sudo touch odoo-server.log

init script

Create a systemd unit called odoo-server to allow your application to behave as a service.

cd /lib/systemd/system/

sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anicetkeric/odoo_v10/master/odoo-server.sh

sudo cp odoo-server.sh /lib/systemd/system/odoo-server.service

Change the odoo-server service permissions and ownership so only root can write to it, while the odoo user will only be able to read and execute it.

sudo chmod 755 /lib/systemd/system/odoo-server.service

sudo chown root: /lib/systemd/system/odoo-server.service

Enable Odoo instances to start on boot:

sudo systemctl enable odoo-server

start the Odoo server:

sudo systemctl start odoo-server

reload the systemd process

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

reboot your server and check for the odoo service using:

netstat -nlt | grep 8069
