How to install Odoo on a Raspberry Pi

Thank you very much for your detailed guideline! It worked fine on my debian bullseye.

Odoo / postgresql are up and running. I´ve changed a few things in the configuration to get a bit more “grip” on the database. The user odoo was origionally configured without password - which is OK for local environment.

Set password in psql:

ALTER ROLE odoo WITH PASSWORD 'yesApassword';

Change DB-Listener to all clients - not only localhost in
/etc/postgresql/13/main/postgresql.conf

listen_addresses = '*'

disable network-restrictions in
/etc/postgresql/13/main/pg_hba.conf

# IPv4 local connections:
host    all             all             0.0.0.0/0               md5

Change /etc/odoo/odoo.conf

[options]
db_host = localhost
db_port = 5432
db_user = odoo
db_password = yesApassword
db_name = odoodb
default_productivity_apps = True
admin_passwd = youDoNotNeedToKnow
addons_path = /etc/odoo/custom_addons

By the way: my initial choice to name the database “odooDB” was a bad idea. I advise using only lowercase letters.

The openEMS app in Odoo is running, but I got stuck saving devices because the field “name” is marked as read-only and required at the same time. Have you made any progress in the meantime?

This whole backend thing in connection with Odoo can be quite frustrating, right?
