Hello, 


I am trying to install a module from odoo webside (3rd party App) , in community version 12 installed on a windows 10 computer/server.

I access the developer mode, updated app list, copied the module on Odoo main folder under Odoo 12.0/Server/Addons - but cannot see the module on the list.

The module/App is not archived, folder is taken out from the archive as downloaded from odoo website.


What is the right procedure or the right path to install these modules to ?


Thank you

Your steps are correct, but you should firstly put the folder to the add-ons and then update the apps' list. Besides, do not forget to restart Odoo server. So, the steps are:

  1. Unzip module to the Odoo add-ons folder

  2. Re-start Odoo

  3. Turn on the developer mode > Update the apps list

  4. Find the app and install it

Make sure that the app is installable (find the key 'installable' in the manifest. It should be true)

Thank you for your fast reply !

The only thing i have not done was to restart the server.

However, even restarting does not bring the app in the list. All the manifest they have "installable" key set to true.

I have tried all possibilities each time with complete restart of the server/computer: took folder out from archive and put directly to addon folder. I tried taking out the subfolder and put it directly on addon folder. It does not work and i wonder what am i doing wrong.

Thank you

Check your odoo conf file: does the folder in where you place a module is imported? It should be something like addons_path = odoo/addons (if your module path is odoo/addons/MYMODULE).

In odoo.conf i have line:

addons_path = C:\Program Files (x86)\Odoo 12.0\server\odoo\addons

and all modules are installed on the good path, for example:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Odoo 12.0\server\odoo\addons\merp_custom_access_rights-12.0.1.0.0

Thank you

Niyas, thank you for your reply.

I have also installed the two separated folders named merp_custom_access_rights and merp_base, under C:\Program Files (x86)\Odoo 12.0\server\odoo\addons.

Restarted the server, activated developer model, updated list - still app does not appear on the list.

Hello everybody, i found the problem, it has to do with some admin rights.

I have edited odoo.conf and added another path on computer, and copied there all addon.

Works ok now !

Thank you for your support !

Hi,

From the comment you have added in the other answer it seems that the module you have downloaded is from the following link: Ventor Custom Access Rights


If  you check the app store you can see that this module is dependent on an another module, which is : ​Vendor Base​

, So once you download this Vendor custom Access Rights module you will get a downloaded copy of the dependent module Vendor Base. This both modules will be placed inside a folder. So what you have to do is that, rather than placing the merp_custom_access_rights-12.0.1.0.0 in  C:\Program Files (x86)\Odoo 12.0\server\odoo\addons place the  folders inside the merp_custom_access_rights-12.0.1.0.0  in the above path

Inside the merp_custom_access_rights-12.0.1.0.0 folder you will see two folders named  merp_custom_access_rights and merp_base , copy this folders and place it in this path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Odoo 12.0\server\odoo\addons


Once you done this, restart the service and update the app list by activating the developer mode and check your app in the apps list.


Thanks
