When i include custom modules (./openerp-server --addons ./addons,./custom_modules). I am getting below error.

It looks like the file has been altered to use Win32 style line breaks while you're running OpenERP in Linux.  Try to convert it to Unix style line breaks first.  Follow the instruction here.

Great! working fine

Ivan

A bit late, but that is exactly the problem @samba. It seems that you are using Win32 encoded file in Linux environment.

Looks like __openerp__.py("base_onchange_player")  file is corrupted ... may be some junk character/data has got added to that file, do have a look it...

I had also faced the same error, so do check it out

In your file I see '\r\n', @Ivan answer is right. '\n' writes a newline in UNIX while for Windows there is the two character sequence: '\r\n'

Thank you Zbik. But i am running my server in Centos not in windows. Previously my code in ubuntu. I have transfered my code using scp command to centos server.

Zbik

Centos = Unix, why do you have in your file '\r\n\???
