I recommend you to visit Yenthe's Blog (www.odoo.yenthevg.com), where he got some clean tutorials on Odoo installation.

Hi Hieu Lam,

you can create odoo script start in ubuntu by:

create file bash:

#!/bin/bash

### BEGIN INIT INFO

# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5

     rm -f $PIDFILE}

function _status() {

    start-stop-daemon --status --quiet --pidfile $PIDFILE

    return $?

}

case "$1" in

        start)

                echo -n "Starting $DESC: "

                _start echo "ok"

                ;;

        stop)

                echo -n "Stopping $DESC: "

                _stop echo "ok"

                echo -n "Restarting $DESC: "

                _stop sleep 1

                _start echo "ok"

                ;;

        status)

                echo -n "Status of $DESC: "

                _status && echo "running" || echo "stopped"

                ;;

        *)    

                N=/etc/init.d/$NAME echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart|force-reload|status}" >&2

esac

exit 0

Hi all, 

After lots of time on #2 approach, I still cannot make odoo running in daemon thread. So I switch back to #1 and this is the final script that work for me. If you are in the same situation, hope that help. 

#!bin/bash

sudo kill -9 /var/run/odoo-server.pid

/opt/odoo/odoo-server/odoo.py -d <db_name> -r <db_user> -w <db_password> --addons-path <addons path> -u <modules to update upon startup> > /var/log/odoo/odoo-server.log 2>&1 & 

echo $! > /var/run/odoo-server.pid
