Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
No matter what directory I'll set in odoo.conf, I'm receiving the same error again and again.
ERROR: couldn't create the logfile directory. Logging to the standard output.
I was trying to set:
logfile = /etc/odoo
logifle = /tmp
logfile = /var/log/odoo
Docker Compose examples from official https://hub.docker.com/_/odoo
Hi Tomek:
If you use the default setting for the Odoo container without specifying the -v command line parameter at the time of creating the container, the log file location is manager by Docker. You can find the exact location of the log file by using the following Linux command.
docker inspect your_container_name | grep LogPath
If you want to manage the log file yourself, you need to create the container to use a directory on the host machine by using the -v command line parameter (-v YOUR_HOST_LOGDIR:/var/lib/odoo). Once you do that the log file will be created in that directory.
Hi Paresh,
Thank You fo your response.
I was trying to put logs into volumes too. It always looks the same:
web_1 | ERROR: couldn't create the logfile directory. Logging to the standard output.
I'm using official dockerfile with my small changes:
https://github.com/odoo/docker/blob/b4c45baf1f0579c654129ac9efe99a929569dab6/13.0/Dockerfile
And docker compose:
version: '2'
services:
web:
image: odoo:12.0
depends_on:
- db
ports:
- "8069:8069"
volumes:
- odoo-web-data:/var/lib/odoo
- ./config:/etc/odoo
- ./addons:/mnt/extra-addons
db:
image: postgres:10
environment:
- POSTGRES_DB=postgres
- POSTGRES_PASSWORD=odoo
- POSTGRES_USER=odoo
- PGDATA=/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata
volumes:
- odoo-db-data:/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata
volumes:
odoo-web-data:
odoo-db-data:
I was trying to direct logs in many locations: inside volumes (including every volume), outside volume. Always the same error, and no logs store.
cd /var/log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3264 Jun 29 07:20 faillog
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1931 Jun 29 07:17 fontconfig.log
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root utmp 29784 Jun 29 07:20 lastlog
drwxr-xr-x 1 odoo odoo 4096 Jun 29 07:20 odoo
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root utmp 0 Jun 7 00:00 wtmp
Maybe it shouldn't be user odoo but docker (1000) ?
How can I be sure that odoo take really path to logfile from odoo.conf ?

Do you have permission to write to those folders?
Are you using docker volume or mapping to a directory on the host?
In logs case I don't use volumes. /var/log/odoo is created during docker build - according to official dockerfile definition.
I have posted an answer based on your clarification. Please take a look.
