openerp-server for Debian
2
-------------------------
4
OpenERP uses a PostgreSQL database to store its data. With the first generation
5
of packages, you have to setup this database manually. Here is a short
6
explanation how to achieve this (you need to execute all commands as root):
8
0. Making sure, PostgreSQL is running
10
# /etc/init.d/postgresql restart
12
Note that depending on the version of PostgreSQL installed on your system,
13
the above syvinit script could also be named postgresql-VERSION (whereas
14
'VERSION' needs to be replace with a version number).
16
1. Creating the database
18
# su - postgres -c "createdb -q --encoding=UNICODE openerp"
20
2. Creating the database user
22
# su - postgres -c "createuser -q --createdb --adduser openerp"
24
Note: If you want to run the database as another user than 'openerp', you
25
need to replace 'openerp' above with the user you want instead, and you
26
need to adjust 'db_user = openerp' in /etc/openerp-server.conf too.
28
4. Initializing the database
30
# su - postgres -c "/usr/bin/openerp-server --init=all \
31
--config=/etc/openerp-server.conf --stop-after-init"
33
5. Restarting openerp-server
35
# /etc/init.d/openerp-server restart
37
Now, you're finish. Please be aware of the following things:
39
* openerp-server has by default two accounts:
40
- User: admin; password: admin
41
- User: demo; password; demo
43
* openerp-server listens by default on port 8070. If you need to change this,
44
edit /etc/openerp-server.conf and replace 'port = 8070' with
47
* openerp-server in the upstreams configuration listens by default to *all*
48
interfaces. For security reasons, we do restrict it in the Debian packages
49
to listen only on localhost. If you need to change this, edit
50
/etc/openerp-server.conf and replace 'interface = localhost' with
51
'interface = <your ip>'.
