I'm just running through the "Building a Module" documentation for v9 and am following along. My code looks identical to the examples here: https://www.odoo.com/documentation/9.0/howtos/backend.html.

When I start the server this is my error:

If I delete the "from . import models" from the init.py I get a different error:

ParseError: "Invalid model name in the action definition.

None" while parsing /home/lslaz/odoo-dev/addons/openacademy/views/views.xml:8, near

</p>

</field>

</record>

Please help! I'm confident that both there things are as they should be but I can't move forward until I figure out what the problem is.

Hi,

Check that you've really folder with name 'models', and there is __init__.py inside of it. can you write down your directory structure ?

It seems that something missing inside of models directory ...

Lindsay Slazakowski

@Benoît Vézina

I simply had no luck trying it the way you described. Any time I created an __init__.py in models/ to import each model and then from . import models in the top level __init__.py I would get this ImportError.

The only way I found around this was to from . import models in the top level __init__.py and move the models.py out of models/ and make it a sibling to __init__.py. Then, no problem!

This is DEFINITELY NOT ideal but it's all I could do to make it work...

If you find the correct workaround I would appreciate knowing how you did it!

Benoît Vézina

Having same kind of problems here trying to follow (with minimal change) the OpenAcademy examples. My problems start when I had the second model (Session).

Error details:
Model not found: xtremmod.session

but in the main __init__.py

from . import models

And it the models folder I have in my __ init__.py

from . import course
from . import session

And then in models/session.py

from openerp import models, fields, api
class Session(models.Model)

_name = 'xtremmod.session'
name = fields.Char(required=True)
start_date = fields.Date()
duration = fields.Float(digits=(6, 2), help="Duration in days")
seats = fields.Integer(string="Number of seats")
instructor_id = fields.Many2one('res.partner', string="Instructor")
course_id = fields.Many2one('xtremmod.course',

ondelete='cascade', string="Course", required=True)

attendee_ids = fields.Many2many('res.partner', string="Attendees")

and I get the following error while import module

Model not found: xtremmod.session

Removing (by commenting) session form view; session tree/list view; the next action (session_list_action) and the menuitem session_menu make it install and course part work fine

<field name="model">xtremmod.session</field>

This is the xml call that make the install crash...

Any help welcome
