Hi All,

I'm trying to run a php script as a server action. I'm using the subprocess function of python to call the code. I have tested the code from the terminal and it works as expected. I've entered the same code into the server actions section (Action Type = Python code), and set the action in the workflow to run when a new order is confirmed. It doesn't work. The code is triggered at the right time, but openerp returns an error.

My code:

import subprocess

args = ["php", "/var/www/PH.php", "-f"]

subprocess.call(args)

OpenERP Server Error

It seems that i'm unable to import subprocess. Any idea's on how to do this?

Thanks in advance,
