Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
I've inherited the res.users model and am trying to add a character field to it. However, it's throwing an internal server error on the server. Upgrading the module isn't working because the UI isn't loading. Additionally, on the live server, I don't have access to the command line to upgrade the module.(following is my code)
from odoo import models, fields
class ResUsers(models.Model):
_inherit = 'res.users'
clerk_id = fields.Char(string="Clerk User ID", index=True)
Hi Mallika,
Try to upgrade the module trought CLI(through backend)
Hope this helps.
Hi,
If you're unable to access the UI (due to a 500 error) and can't use the CLI to upgrade your module on Odoo.sh, one effective workaround is to create a minimal custom module that defines your new field and sets it to auto-install. This ensures it gets automatically installed without manual upgrades.
Here’s how you do it:
Create a new module, for example: user_clerk_field
Add the following __manifest__.py:
{
'name': 'User Clerk Field',
'version': '1.0',
'depends': ['base'],
'author': 'Your Name',
'installable': True,
'auto_install': True, # <-- This makes it install automatically
}
Inside the module folder, add a models/ directory with an __init__.py and res_users.py file:
models/__init__.py:
from . import res_users
models/res_users.py:
from odoo import models, fields
class ResUsers(models.Model):
_inherit = 'res.users'
clerk_id = fields.Char(string="Clerk User ID", index=True)
Once you push this module to Odoo.sh, it will install automatically due to auto_install=True, and your new field will be created without needing to manually upgrade via UI or CLI.
This approach is safe, reliable, and avoids crashes caused by views referencing a field that hasn't been created yet.
Hope it helps.
