Want to run odoo on eclipse

I'm new to odoo. I'm trying to develop custom modules in Odoo on ubuntu 14 in eclpse using pydev.

I was able to run Odoo normally successfully by this command through the terminal: "cd /opt/odoo/odoo" and then "./openerp-server". I could use Odoo on localhost:8069 on my browser

However, I'm stuck with configuration for the development environment. The problem is whenever I try to 'python run' the file 'openerp-server' in eclipse, this is my console output:

"Traceback (most recent call last):

Can you please help me with this problem. Your help will be appreciated.

Hi Michael, your answer was helpful and I was able to get across the win32 error by adding that location as a PYTHONPATH in eclipse. However, I am still stuck with many compile-time errors, most of them are errors on import statements in odoo/openerp/__init__.py like:

import conf

import tools

from . import models
from . import fields
from . import api
from openerp.tools.translate import _

Also, I am getting this error while 'Python-run'ing openerp-server :

File "/home/prashant/workspace/odoo/openerp/tools/config.py", line 630
os.chmod(self.rcfile, 0600)
^
SyntaxError: invalid token

Can you please help and guide me with some tips to get odoo source code running through eclipse. I think I am missing out on some basic steps like adding some references. Thanks a lot for your help.

Michael Pol

There should be a python module(file) name win32.py which might be missing in your case, please check that file at /home/prashant/workspace/odoo/openerp/tools location.

If your root path is different pass configuration file(openerp-server.conf) as argument to interpreter.

Update: Problem solved. My python interpreter was not set up properly. It requires python 2.7 interpreter to run Odoo.
