Hello,

I have installed in an open source way Odoo server on an Ubuntu 14.04 with the production script :

https://github.com/aschenkels-ictstudio/openerp-install-scripts

It generates a script that is supposed to restart the server process automatically as it stops from time to time. However, it happens that the server process stops without restating automatically. 

My question is : "Would someone with some Linux administration knowledge have an init script that works well ?"

Thanks,

Best regards,

José
