Introduction
In this guide, we will walk you through the process of installing and configuring Odoo 16 ERP on Ubuntu

Step 1: Update Package Manager


Before installing Odoo, make sure your Ubuntu package manager is up to date by executing the following
commands:

sudo apt-get update


sudo apt-get upgrade -y

Step 2: Create an Odoo User


To ensure proper system management, create an Odoo user with administrative privileges using the following
command:

sudo adduser --system --home=/opt/odoo --group odoo

Step 3: Install PostgreSQL and Create an Odoo User for PostgreSQL


Odoo relies on PostgreSQL as its database server. Install PostgreSQL and create an Odoo user for database
access:

sudo apt install postgresql -y


sudo su - postgres -c "createuser -s odoo" 2> /dev/null || true
sudo chmod 700 -R /var/lib/postgresql/14/main/
sudo systemctl restart postgresql

Step 4: Installation of Python and Python PIP Dependencies


Install Python and Python PIP dependencies required for Odoo:

sudo apt-get install git python3 python3-pip build-essential wget python3-dev python3-
venv python3-wheel libxslt-dev libzip-dev libldap2-dev libsasl2-dev python3-setuptools
node-less libjpeg-dev gdebi -y

Step 5: Additional Packages Required


Node.js is required for Odoo 16. Install it with the following command:
sudo apt-get install nodejs npm -y
If you need right-to-left CSS or language support in Odoo, you can add it with:
sudo npm install -g rtlcss

Step 6: Installation of wkhtmltox


To enable Odoo 16 to generate PDF reports, install wkhtmltopdf:

sudo apt-get install xfonts-75dpi xfonts-base -y


wget https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/packaging/releases/download/0.12.6.1-
2/wkhtmltox_0.12.6.1-2.jammy_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i wkhtmltox_0.12.6.1-2.jammy_amd64.deb

Step 7: Create a Log Directory and Provide Permissions


Create a log directory for Odoo and grant the necessary write permissions:

sudo mkdir /var/log/odoo


sudo chown odoo:odoo /var/log/odoo

Step 8: Installation of Odoo 16


Before installing Odoo, make sure your Ubuntu package manager is up to date by executing the following
commands:

sudo apt-get install git


sudo git clone https://www.github.com/odoo/odoo /opt/odoo/odoo-server -b 16.0 --depth 1

Step 9: Setup Required Permissions


After installing Odoo 16, set the required permissions for it to function properly:

sudo chown -R odoo:odoo /opt/odoo/

Step 10: Creation of a Server Configuration File


Create a configuration file for Odoo:

sudo touch /etc/odoo-server.conf


sudo su root -c "printf '[options]\n' | sudo tee /etc/odoo-server.conf"
sudo su root -c "printf 'admin_passwd = admin\n' | sudo tee -a /etc/odoo-server.conf"
sudo su root -c "printf 'xmlrpc_port = 9080\n' | sudo tee -a /etc/odoo-server.conf"
sudo su root -c "printf 'logfile = /var/log/odoo/odoo-server.log\n' | sudo tee -a
/etc/odoo-server.conf"
sudo su root -c "printf 'addons_path=/opt/odoo/odoo-server/addons\n' | sudo tee -a
/etc/odoo-server.conf"

Give the configuration file appropriate permissions:


sudo chown odoo:odoo /etc/odoo-server.conf
sudo chmod 640 /etc/odoo-server.conf

Step 11: Create a Python Virtual Environment


To isolate the Odoo installation, create a Python virtual environment:

sudo su -l odoo -s /bin/bash


cd odoo-server
python3 -m venv odoo-venv
source odoo-venv/bin/activate
pip3 install wheel
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
deactivate
