Odoo Installation Script for Ubuntu

This script automates the installation of Odoo on an Ubuntu system using a virtual environment. It creates a PostgreSQL user for Odoo, sets up a system user, and installs all necessary dependencies while avoiding manual configuration.

Features

• Installs the specified version of Odoo (e.g., 17, 18) without user prompts.
• Creates a dedicated system user and PostgreSQL user for Odoo.
• Sets up a virtual environment for Python dependencies.
• Configures Odoo to run as a service using systemd.

Prerequisites

• Ubuntu 20.04 or later.
• Sudo privileges to install packages and configure system services.

How to Use

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/your-repo.git
   cd your-repo
   

2. Make the Script Executable:

   chmod +x install_odoo.sh
   

3. Run the Script: Pass the desired Odoo version as an argument. For example, to install Odoo 17:

   ./install_odoo.sh 17
   

4. Access Odoo: Once the installation is complete, access Odoo via your web browser at:

   http://localhost:10017  # For Odoo 17
   http://localhost:10018  # For Odoo 18
   

Important Notes

• Ensure that your system is up to date before running the script.
• The default admin password for Odoo is set to "admin." Change it in the configuration file if needed.

Troubleshooting

• If you encounter permission issues, ensure you run the script with sudo.
• Verify that all required packages are installed and up to date.
• Check the Odoo log files located at /var/log/odoo<version>/odoo.log for any errors during startup.
