Hello,

I'm running a Posbox inside a PC with Ubuntu 16.04 and it was working fine. I built a module for connectivity with some serial device and when I restarted Odoo it just wouldn't run anymore. Then I removed the module from odoo.conf and the addons folder, restarted the service and still doesn't load. I tried restarting the machine to no avail.

Odoo log file stops at the point when I made the first restart after adding the custom module and ends with the typical "Hit CTRL-C again..." message. There's not even any error message indicating a failed start. The service just stopped and never ran again.

When I check the service status this is what I obtain:
root@Posbox:~# systemctl status odoo
● odoo.service - LSB: Start odoo daemon at boot time
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/odoo; bad; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: active (exited) since mié 2019-03-13 22:00:41 -03; 11h ago
     Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)
  Process: 852 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/odoo start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)

mar 13 22:00:41 Posbox systemd[1]: Starting LSB: Start odoo daemon at boot time...
mar 13 22:00:41 Posbox odoo[852]: Starting odoo: ok
mar 13 22:00:41 Posbox systemd[1]: Started LSB: Start odoo daemon at boot time.

This seems a Linux service problem rather than an Odoo problem. Has anyone faced this?

Thanks.

Nevermind, I figured out. Somehow the permissions for the odoo.conf file changed and it wasn't visible for the user odoo. It's strange because I never changed them.
