Baffled. I have a brand new instance just installed and I cant add any employees. The first one was there (default administrator). I went to add a second employee and on save I get a big error .This is pretty discouraging to say the least.  

Do any of the master python developers here have an idea of what to look for based on the error? I can't thank you enough for even looking.

I met the same problem, but my reason because I installed module call 'is_employee', after uninstalled that, no error

Billie,

It appears that your Odoo server has lost connectivity to the database.  Please make sure your database instance is running.  If not, restart the postgresql instance and try to add employee again.
