Hello Guys 

A fresh install on Ubuntu 18.04 latest update applied

Odoo v11 install from git 

Odoo claims that wkhtmltopdf is not installed 


I did the following

    sudo wget https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/releases/download/0.12.5/wkhtmltox_0.12.5-1.bionic_amd64.deb

##  this take care of the needed dependencies

sudo apt install -y ./wkhtmltox_0.12.5-1.bionic_amd64.deb

sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf /usr/bin

 sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltoimage /usr/bin

Thanks in advance


UPDATE

Thanks for the response but I do want to use the last version as stated by Odoo

and the problem occurs only when installing Odoo in /opt/oddo not when installing in /odoo

Hello @ christophe humbert

sudo wget https://builds.wkhtmltopdf.org/0.12.1.3/wkhtmltox_0.12.1.3-1~bionic_amd64.deb

sudo dpkg -i wkhtmltox_0.12.1.3-1~bionic_amd64.deb

sudo apt-get install -f 

apt-get install -f will installs missing dependencies

sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf /usr/bin

sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltoimage /usr/bin

this may work for v11 wkhtmltopdf for ubuntu 18.04

It can be permission issue, you may want to check if the user that runs odoo service has permission to access install folder of wkhtmltopdf
