Hello,

Can someone refer me to a reliable document explainng how to install Odoo 9 on Linux?

It seems to me that the very short explanation on the website is incorrect or inaccurate.

(when I follow the first command "wget -O - https://nightly.odoo.com/odoo.key | apt-key add -" I get this error 

"Cannot write to ‘-’ (Broken pipe)."

Thanks!

This is no answer to the question. He obviously wants to install Odoo using the package installer and it seems he only has a sudo/root problem.

Thanks mate, I think part of the question "Can someone refer me to a reliable document explainng how to install Odoo 9 on Linux?"

Well, there are 2 ways to install Odoo, from sources or by using the package installers. In my opinion it is not the best way to suggest a source install, when somebody has a simple problem with the package install. Besides that, I myself have made to many mistakes by using all these different scripts/advises for source installations. As long as you are not a professional developer, there is no need for a source install and the package installer is a secure and stable way to install Odoo.

For sure I'm agree with you, but we don't know the background of the question is it developer or normal user. Since he used Linux I just assumed he need to do evaluation and some developments ...

When he is using "wget -O - https://nightly.odoo.com/odoo.key | apt-key add -" then he obviously tries to use the package installer method :-)

Obviously you try to install the Ubuntu 14.04 LTS package installer, which is the way I recommend to you.

Please read the instructions https://www.odoo.com/documentation/9.0/setup/install.html  carefully! It says:

To install Odoo 9.0 on Debian-based distribution, execute the following commands as root:            


This means that you have to change to the root user by executing "sudo su" before you execute the mentioned 3 commands:

ubuntu@ip-192-168-110-153:~$ sudo su
root@ip-192-168-110-153:/home/ubuntu#

Then you execute the commands:

 wget -O - https://nightly.odoo.com/odoo.key | apt-key add -
 echo "deb http://nightly.odoo.com/9.0/nightly/deb/ ./" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
 apt-get update && apt-get install odoo


After that you return to your regular user by entering the command

exit
