Odoo 12 Community Edition
Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-72-generic x86_64)

I've downgraded an Odoo instance from 11e to 11ce and then migrated it to 12ce using OCA Open Upgrade and have a problem with leftover data.

While I've deleted the app "Helpdesk" and related modules, helpdesk_sale_timesheet and helpdesk_timesheet, they still appear in the data.

For instance​. the model helpdesk.ticket still exists in the database, and I cannot delete it because:

Model 'Ticket' co​ntains module data and cannot be removed.

This is also breaking the Discuss (mail) app as I cannot go to the Discuss page.  Error:
​

```

Error:

Odoo Server Error

    return self.registry[model_name]._browse((), self)

  File "/opt/odoo12/odoo/odoo/modules/registry.py", line 176, in __getitem__

    return self.models[model_name]

KeyError: 'helpdesk.ticket'

```

I've taken the following steps to try and remove this data:
​

  • Removed the module directories from the server

  • ./odoo-bin --update all

  • service odoo restart -u all

  • Apps -> List mode -> Checkbox -> Delete for helpdesk

  • Remove and reinstall Discuss (mail)


What else can I do?

I would try deleting mail.message records linked to the helpdesk.ticket model - the error indicates the custom mail_tracking module is triggering the error and I suspect it is trying to do something with messages linked to the helpdesk App.

How? I get the above error if I try to delete them. Is there a way to do it directly in the database (making sure you get everything)?

Try: DELETE FROM MAIL.MESSAGE WHERE MODEL = 'helpdesk.ticket';

Seems to have worked. Thank you!

Although mail_message (for those needing this).

Yenthe Van Ginneken (Mainframe Monkey)

OCA has some great tools for data cleaning and cleaning up apps too by the way. Adding it as a reference here. See https://www.odoo.com/apps/modules/12.0/database_cleanup/

Thank you, Yenthe. That's a great tool!

Admin Samadeva

As Yenthe said, the OCA DatabaseCleanUp module does the job, but what is the right way to remove totally a custom model without using this kind of "Emergency" cleanup module ?
