openerp-server.py –addons-path=~/home/workspace/stable/addons I also found in the documentation that that suggests starting the server with: Now the start up scripts are in usr/local/bin so I assume I can't run, using 'debug as' in eclipse or see the logs in the eclipse console. How can I trace stuff through the source if it's running from all over the file system.Įverything has now been copied out of home into the file system as I had tried to avoid. Secondly setup.py install is obviosuly vital if you need to run it to get a new module recognised. While trying to get the module I added to show up I discovered this on the forums 'You'll have to run setup.py install after putting the module in addons if you didn't specify an addons path when running openerp-server.'įirstly I'm confused about why you need to build I thought it was onlt the c libs that needed building and I'd done that when installing dependences. I couldn't get it into the module list & even zipping it up and trying to import it through the client failed without errors. Problems came when I tried to install a new module.

Cause then I though I'd have to run eclipse as root & I'd not be able to trace process though the source cause it's all be scattered thought the file system. I didn't want this so I stopped the process. At some point though I had executed a script that tried to copy all the bits and pieces out of my home folder into the file system some going to /ect or usr/local. I went through the web client setup & I though the installation had been done. I added the 2 as projects in eclipse, pydev running on Ubuntu 11.10 and started then up. I downloaded Open ERP server & web, having decided against the thicker gtk.
