Hi everyone,

I'm configuring queue_job in Odoo to handle email sending so users don’t have to wait too long on the frontend. Below is my configuration in the config file:

ODOO_QUEUE_JOB_PORT=8069
workers = 4
server_wide_modules = base,web,queue_job
[queue_job]
channels = root:2

And here’s my Odoo code:

def _send_mail_accountant(self):
    for record in self:
        try:
            mail_id = (record.env.ref("purchase_qt3.mail_template_req_accountant", raise_if_not_found=False)
                       .with_context({'default_author_id': record.env.ref('base.partner_root').id})
                       .send_mail(record.id, force_send=False))
            mail_mail_id = record.env['mail.mail'].browse(mail_id)
            if mail_mail_id and mail_mail_id.state in ['exception', 'outgoing']:
                mail_mail_id.send()
            return True
        except Exception as e:
            raise UserError(f"Failed to send email: {e}")

def action_send_req_accountant(self):
    """
    Send a request to the accountant to confirm funding source
    :return:
    """
    for record in self:
        record.write({
            'state': 'await_accountant',
        })
        emails = record.env['ir.config_parameter'].sudo().get_param('purchase_qt3.x_email_to_accountant')
        if emails:
            emails = emails.split(',')
            if len(emails) > 1:
                record.write({
                    'x_email_to_accountant': emails[0],
                    'x_email_cc_accountant': ','.join(emails[1:]),
                })
            else:
                record.write({
                    'x_email_to_accountant': emails[0],
                })
            record.with_delay(priority=1)._send_mail_accountant()

The issue is that the emails are not being sent. After implementing this, when I click the button to send the email on the web interface, the user no longer has to wait for the page to load (which is good), but the emails are still not going out.

Here’s the error I’m seeing in the logs:

              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

OSError: [WinError 10038] An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket

Why aren’t the emails being sent? It seems like queue_job is preventing the jobs from running properly. Has anyone encountered this issue or have any suggestions on how to fix it? I’m running this on Windows with Odoo 16.

Thanks in advance for your help!
