Hello,

I'm on a ubunut 16.04 server with Odoo11

I installed wkhtmltopdf v. 0.12.4 qt this way:


wget https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/releases/download/0.12.4/wkhtmltox-0.12.4_linux-generic-amd64.tar.xz
sudo tar xvf wkhtmltox-0.12.4_linux-generic-amd64.tar.xz
sudo mv wkhtmltox/bin/wkhtmlto* /usr/bin/
ls -l /usr/bin/wkhtml*
sudo chown root:root /usr/bin/wkhtmltopdf
sudo chown root:root /usr/bin/wkhtmltoimage


I can generate a page directly from the command line.

On the other hand in Odoo there is an Odoo error message empty of any information.


I tried to install the latest version 0.12.5 but without any more success.


What is the right way to install wkhtmltopdf

Thank you in advance.

Thank you for your quick answer.


I have implemented your recommendations but the problem remains the same.


My version of Odoo is at the following Odoo 11.0-20190311 (Community Edition)

wkhtmltopdf -V

wkhtmltopdf 0.12.1 (with patched qt)


What is the current version of wkhtmltopdf that is recommended for Odoo11

Do you have any ideas?

Download the deb file for the wkhtmltopdf library

  1. sudo wget https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/releases/download/0.12.1/wkhtmltox-0.12.1_linux-trusty-amd64.deb

Download the Libpng12 library

  1. wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/libp/libpng/libpng12-0_1.2.54-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb

Install the Libpng12 library

  1. sudo dpkg -i libpng12-0_1.2.54-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb

Install now the wkhtmltopdf deb file

  1. sudo dpkg -i wkhtmltox-0.12.1_linux-trusty-amd64.deb

Copy the binary files to the bin locations:

  1. sudo cp /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf /usr/bin

  2. sudo cp /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltoimage /usr/bin

Restart Odoo Server, (You may need to refresh Odoo on your Browser to start downloading PDF reports)
