I am trying to install a custom module (Sale Channel) in Odoo 9 and I keep getting the following error:

ParseError: "External ID not found in the system: base.menu_base_config" while parsing file:///C:/Program Files/Odoo 9.0-20160923/server/openerp/addons/sale_channel/views/partner_view.xml:55, near<menuitem id="menu_sales_channel" parent="base.menu_base_config" groups="base.group_sale_manager" action="action_sales_channels_view"/>

Any help/guidance would be much appreciated.

The module you are installing is for version 8, not version 9.  You can see this on the Apps store:


At version 8, the "Sales/Configuration" menu can be found by the External ID base.menu_base_config  

At version 9, the "Sales/Configuration" menu can be found by the External ID base.menu_sale_config


The module is looking for an External ID that isn't in Odoo version 9, so that's why you are getting the error.

I downloaded version 9 from their Github repo, it seems to be identical to version 8.
