The chat button doesn't appear at all on the website. Even it doesn't work on the live demo of Odoo https://demo2.odoo.com. Does anyone know about it?

If this is a issue it should be fixed.

The livechat on localhost works fine.

Hi, I had same problem and I updated /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/odoo.conf file as below: 

# Odoo server 
upstream odoo {server 127.0.0.1:8069;
}

upstream odoochat {
    server 127.0.0.1:8072;
}

map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
    default upgrade;
    ''      close;
}

server {
    listen 443 ssl;
    ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/certificate.crt; 
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private.key;
    proxy_read_timeout 720s;
    proxy_connect_timeout 720s;
    proxy_send_timeout 720s;
    # log
    access_log /var/log/nginx/odoo.access.log;
    error_log /var/log/nginx/odoo.error.log;

    # Redirect requests to odoo backend server
    location / {
        # Add Headers for odoo proxy mode
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_pass http://odoo;
        add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains";
    }

    location /longpolling {
        proxy_pass http://odoochat;
    }

    location /websocket {
        proxy_pass http://odoochat; 
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    }

    # common gzip
    gzip_types text/css text/less text/plain text/xml application/xml application/json application/javascript;
    gzip on;

    client_body_in_file_only clean;
    client_body_buffer_size 32K;
    client_max_body_size 500M;
    sendfile on;
    send_timeout 600s;
    keepalive_timeout 300;
}

server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    server_name _;
    return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Host $host;


after save it. You should restart ngingx service :


 
sudo systemctl restart nginx

or

sudo service nginx stop
sudo service nginx start


If you are still experiencing issues, you can check the Nginx error logs for more information:

tail -f /var/log/nginx/error.log 

I solved this problem with the solution and I hope the solution will help you also.

I solved this by doing the below

1- set workers in odoo.conf

2-set upstream polling in nginx conf (refere to odoo deploy documentation)

3-install requirments.txt again after doing the above 2 points (to install gevent)

Hi Maher,

1) I set workers to 4 in Odoo

2) I setup upstream polling in nginx

3) pip install gevent gives me a Requirement already satisfied message

Not sure why I can't see the chat button though.

The Comment from Jose Gpe Osuna from 21 March 2023 provided the answer for me for Odoo 16:

This can a be problem with how you have configured Odoo. I had the same issue after configuring SSL and fixed it by doing below changes;

Once SSL is enabled using nginx, Odoo must be operational in multiprocessing mode in order to enable Live chat feature as Live Chat request redirected to longpolling port in nginx site configuration file.

example:

    # Handle longpoll requests
    location /longpolling {
        proxy_pass http://odoochat;
    }

when above is configured I also had to configure /etc/odoo.conf file as something like below.

[options]
; This is the password that allows database operations:
;admin_passwd = my_admin_passwd
db_host = False
db_port = False
db_user = odoo13
db_password = False
addons_path = /opt/odoo13/odoo/addons,/opt/odoo13/odoo-custom-addons
proxy_mode = True
xmlrpc_interface = 127.0.0.1
netrpc_interface = 127.0.0.1
max_cron_threads = 1
workers = 8

note "workers", it must be set depending on your hardware configuration.

when SSL is enabled try issuing below command in terminal

sudo netstat -tulpn | grep 8072

if configuration is ok, you should see something like below;

tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:8072          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      8223/python3

more info can be found at https://www.odoo.com/documentation/13.0/setup/deploy.html

Odoo 16 has changed longpolling to websocket
# Handle longpoll requests
location /websocket {
proxy_pass http://odoochat;
}

Now it's working on my Odoo 16 instance
