Hello, I love to be here. I installed a similar version of Odoo 8.0.20160729 (which i try to run now on my machine) on another machine. It worked without problems and i really love it.
Specs. recent machine:
Odoo 8.0.20160729 with "PostgreSQL 9.3.5, compiled by Visual C++ build 1600, 32-bit"
pgAdmin 1.18.1
Firefox 47.0
User "Hörner-PC/Hörner" in Win 10 home on a x64 machine
Problem:
I cant login into Odoo: "500 Internal Server Error". I reinstalled Odoo in different folders (last: "C:\Odoo8"). Before the reinstallation i cleansed my pc of the old installation. Running openerp_server.exe in cmd showed an encoding error ([1] - UnicodeEncodeError). [2] led to a solution (unset client_encoding in postgresql.conf , restart service PostgreSQL_for_Odoo) . This led to the next Error ([3] - "no password supplied"). Solved by [4] (pg_hba.conf - for all IPv6 local connections: replaced "md5" with "trust"). Which led to ([5] - role doesn't exist, showing encryption errors). I am not sure if this is a problem with encoding or with a nonexisting user.
[1] - "UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf6' in position 10: ordinal not in range(128)"
[2] - https://github.com/odoo/odoo/issues/835
[3] - OperationalError: "fe_sendauth: no password supplied"
[4] - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33928585/python-and-postgresql-operationalerror-fe-sendauth-no-password-supplied
[5] - OperationalError: FATAL: role �H�rner� doesn't exist
Questions:
I could search on for solutions but i fear that this will lead to a series of other errors. Is there a general mistake i made, that leads to these errors?
Not beeing experienced in SQL, I didn't really understand the structure behind Odoo. What i understood: Odoo uses (in a way) PostgreSQL by using the user "openpg". This works: openpg is logged in localhost:5432 according to pgAdmin. But what does "INFO ? openerp: database user: Hörner" mean in this context?
Thanks very much
every help is appreciated!
INFO and ERROR messages are from the Odoo log and tell you a little bit about what's happening on the backend of things.
