AttributeError: 'etree._ElementTree' object has no attribute

[sraps]

According to REQUIRES.txt file, report-openoffice requires two packages: 1) relatorio 2)openoffice-python

The second one is not included in the openerp allinone installer for ubuntu. Procedure:

8.04 : sudo easy_install openoffice-python
9.10 : sudo apt-get install -y python-openoffice

BTW, I’ve figured out how to install python lxml 2.2.4 on Ubuntu 8.04:

sudo apt-get install -y libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev
sudo easy_install “lxml>2.0″

I will take a look where to "accomodate" this info. Thank you, this will be very helpful to others.

On the other hand, openoffice has to be running in headless mode to generate pdf documents (check it out by "ps uaxww | grep -i soffice"). The allinone installer provides a startup script "sudo /etc/init.d/openoffice stop/start"

Headless is not a requirement. For example, you can run OOo ordinary, just open ports, doing this way you will see document popping up, when doing conversion.

Of course you would like to have it headless on real production server.

Hi

Thanks for your help. Even after checking I had python-openoffice and lxml > 2.0 installed I still get the same issue ie

<type 'exceptions.KeyError'>: u'odt'
args = (u'odt',)
message = u'odt'

Any further ideas?

And about the "odt" error: Is the openerp code up to date? Take a look at the following bug already fixed:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-c ... bug/498180

[joolsr]

It's not to do with a missing ODT action, as the line that was missing from actions.py is already present in my install.

Wish I did know what it was though

The allinone installer is now up to date with the missing libraries that report-openoffice asks for.
Nevertheless, I still get errors when testing report_openoffice_samples:

Error obtained on Ubuntu 9.10 following the "How to create your first report" tutorial:

This is because for some unknown reason report have not been registered as system service. Please try to provide a bit more info, what have you done just before this has happened...

[inaki]

I followed your tutorial, then click on Partners -> Partners -> click on one row (Axelor) -> click on "My Sample Report" on the right column.

Dunno how to provide more useful info..

Got the same error on debian lenny with openErp 5.0.6.
To solve this, change the report type from "pdf" to "OpenOffice - pdf output".
