Hello Odoo Community!

Does this error message sound familiar to you?

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fCFplI_S4D0d4RvVJQsA0KjelsNAz-tWHIlaqdOeyG0

It is displayed when any user tries to install an application or module, and it reads as follows:

Thanks in advanced!

Axel Mendoza

you need to change that import

from

from osv import fields, osv

from openerp.osv import fields, osv

John seems to have a bitnami installation. I believe that something went wrong with the installation, because there is a module osv.py in the standard installation. Maybe a missing or wrong path configuration. It should not be necessary to change code like that. Also, a newer version of Odoo is available on Bitnami, I would try to install the newer one.

Axel Mendoza

That code works in v7, I still use it, but in new versions this are not posible, this one of the things that I do when migrating my modules from v7 to v9 alfa and I think that in v8 doesn't work that too

Ermin Trevisan

Axel, I do not deny your analysis. I only state that no Bitnami Odoo installation would work when your code change would be necessary and the whole Bitnami Odoo community would well know about it. But as this is not the case, the true cause must be in the installation or configuration process.

Ermin Trevisan

Last year I have made several Odoo Bitnami installations myself and I never had an issue like that.

Axel Mendoza

The thing is that base_contact(taken from the logs you post) is a very old module (deprecated and no longer used in new versions) so if your bitnami installation is configured for use it that is the root cause of your troubles
