This is a guide for install OpenERP 8, Odoo, on FreeBSD 9. The Odoo installer supports FreeBSD, so all that needs to be done is install a few dependencies and run the installer.
Setting up the Environment¶
- Start by making sure everything is up to date:
pkg update && pkg upgrade portsnap fetch extract
- Install portmaster:
cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portmaster make install clean pkg2ng
- Install dependencies from ports
portmaster textproc/py-libxml2 textproc/py-xlwt devel/py-pytz lang/py-mx-base databases/py-psycopg2 graphics/py-chart graphics/py-pydot textproc/py-libxslt devel/py-lxml textproc/py-xml devel/py-yaml textproc/py-mako devel/py-dateutil print/py-reportlab www/py-werkzeug deskutils/py-vobject finance/py-vatnumber devel/py-unittest2 devel/py-simplejson www/py-requests textproc/py-qrcode devel/py-usb security/py-openid net/py-ldap2 comms/py-serial print/py-pdf devel/py-parsing databases/py-psycogreen databases/py-psycopg2 sysutils/py-psutil graphics/py-pillow security/py-passlib devel/py-mock devel/py-gevent textproc/py-feedparser devel/py-decorator converters/wkhtmltopdf x11-fonts/webfonts
- NOTE: I came across a problem with a pyparsing version preventing the setup.py script to work properly. I found that I needed to uninstall devel/py-pyparsing and replace it with devel/py-pyparsing15:
cd /usr/ports/devel/py-parsing make deinstall clean portmaster devel/py-pyparsing15
- NOTE: I came across a problem with a pyparsing version preventing the setup.py script to work properly. I found that I needed to uninstall devel/py-pyparsing and replace it with devel/py-pyparsing15:
- (Optional) Install the dependencies using pkgng:
pkg install py27-libxml2 py27-xlwt py27-pytz py27-mx-base py27-psycopg2 py27-chart py27-pydot py27-libxslt py27-lxml py27-yaml py27-mako py27-dateutil py27-reportlab py27-werkzeug py27-vobject py27-vatnumber py27-unittest2 py27-simplejson py27-requests py27-qrcode py27-usb py27-openid py27-ldap py27-serial py27-pdf py27-pyparsing py27-psycogreen py27-psycopg2 py27-psutil py27-pillow py27-passlib py27-mock py27-gevent py27-feedparser py27-decorator wkhtmltopdf
- Add the OpenERP user
pw add user -n openerpd -m -s /bin/sh -c "OpenERP"
Install Odoo¶
- Make and switch to the /usr/local/src directory:
mkdir /usr/local/src cd /usr/local/src
- Download the latest nightly version of Odoo:
fetch 'https://nightly.odoo.com/8.0/nightly/src/odoo_8.0.latest.tar.gz' tar xzf odoo_8.0-latest.tar.gz cd odoo-8.0-*
- Install using the setup script:
python2 setup.py install
- Set ownership of odoo to the openerpd user:
chown -R openerpd:wheel /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/odoo-8.0*
- NOTE: The path may need to be changed to fit the odoo path.
Configure Odoo¶
- Create a basic odoo config file:
vi /usr/local/etc/openerp-server.conf
- And add the following:
[options] ; This is the password that allows database operations: ; admin_passwd = admin db_host = pg.example.com db_port = 5432 db_user = odoouser db_password = odoodb addons_path = /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/odoo-8.0_20150510-py2.7.egg/openerp/addons/
- NOTE: If using the nightly builds the addons_path may need to be changed to suit the path odoo was installed to.
- And add the following:
Odoo rc script¶
- First make a directory for the openerpd pid
mkdir /var/run/openerpd chown openerpd /var/run/openerpd
- Create a new rc script for odoo:
vi /usr/local/etc/rc.d/openerpd
- And add the following:
#!/bin/sh # # PROVIDE: openerpd # REQUIRE: postgresql LOGIN # # Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable openerp-server # # # openerpd_enable (bool): Set to "NO" by default, # Set it to "YES" to enable openerp-server # # openerpd_config (str): The path to the openerp-server configuration file # (defaults to /usr/local/etc/openerp-server.conf) # # openerpd_flags (str): Extra arguments to be used when invoking # the openerp-server daemon. # # openerpd_addons (str): The path to the openerpd addons. # # Patch submitted by (c) Franck Porcher, Ph.D, to fix some issues regarding # pidfile, log files, and discrepencies with the main configuration file. . /etc/rc.subr name=openerpd command=/usr/local/bin/openerp-server rcvar=openerpd_enable load_rc_config $name openerpd_enable="${openerpd_enable-"NO"}" openerpd_config="${openerpd_config-"/usr/local/etc/openerp-server.conf"}" openerpd_user="${openerpd_user-"openerpd"}" openerpd_pidfile="${openerpd_pidfile:-"/var/run/openerpd/openerpd.pid"}" openerpd_logdir="${openerpd_logdir:-"/var/log/openerpd.log"}" openerpd_flags="${openerpd_flags:-"--config=${openerpd_config} --pidfile=${openerpd_pidfile} --logfile=${openerpd_logdir} "}" # /etc/rc.subr use $pidfile (not ${name}_pidfile) pidfile="${openerpd_pidfile}" required_files="${openerpd_config}" start_cmd="su - ${openerpd_user} -c '${command} ${openerpd_flags}' &" stop_cmd="${name}_stop" status_cmd="${name}_status" getval_cmd="${name}_getval" openerpd_stop() { openerpd_pid=$(pgrep -f "openerp-server") echo "Stopping ${name}." kill -s TERM "$(cat "${openerpd_pidfile}")" echo "Stopping ${name}." kill -s TERM "${openerpd_pid}" } openerpd_status() { # Try its best to find the service's status if [ -f "${openerpd_pidfile}" ] then openerpd_pid="$(cat "${openerpd_pidfile}")" fi if [ -z "${openerpd_pid}" ] then openerpd_pid=$(pgrep -f "openerp-server") [ -n "${openerpd_pid}" ] && echo "${openerpd_pid}" > "${openerpd_pidfile}" fi if [ -n "${openerpd_pid}" ] then echo "${name} running with pid: $openerpd_pid" else echo "${name} not running? (pid not found)" fi } command_args=" >/dev/null 2>&1 &" load_rc_config $name run_rc_command "$1"
- And add the following:
- Make the script executable:
chmod +x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/openerpd
- Start and enable odoo at boot:
echo 'openerpd_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf service openerpd start
- NOTE: If the server does not start, try to start it manually and look for any output:
su -m openerpd -c 'sh -c "/usr/local/bin/openerp-server --config=/usr/local/etc/openerp-server.conf"'
- NOTE: If the server does not start, try to start it manually and look for any output:
- Now navigate to http://odoo.example.com:8069 to complete the installation process.
(Optional) Install Odoo from GitHub¶
- Add the OpenERP user
pw add user -n openerpd -m -s /bin/sh -c "OpenERP"
- Remove openldap-client and py27-ldap:
pkg remove openldap-client py27-ldap
- Reinstall py27-ldap from ports, enabling [X] SASL
portmaster net/py-ldap
- Enable [X] GSSAPI in the openldap-client port.
- Install pip:
pkg install py27-pip
- Make and switch to the /usr/local/src directory:
mkdir /usr/local/src cd /usr/local/src
- Download Odoo from GitHub:
git clone -b 8.0 https://www.github.com/odoo/odoo cd odoo
- Install the odoo dependencies using pip:
pip install -r requirements.txt
- Now install odoo:
python2 setup.py install
- Next copy the addons from the git repo to the install directory:
cp -r /usr/local/src/odoo/addons/* /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/odoo-8.0-py2.7.egg/openerp/addons/
- Set ownership of odoo to the openerpd user:
chown -R openerpd:wheel /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/odoo-8.0*
- NOTE: The path may need to be changed to fit the odoo path.
Configure Odoo¶
