Friday, February 16th, 2018After installing Odoo 10 or 11 on openSuSE Leap 42.3, report footer and header will show in HTML but not in PDF reports.

wkhtmltopdf-0.12.4.patched-18.1.x86_64.rpm

wkhtmltopdf-qt-devel-4.8.7.git20170418-1.1.x86_64.rpm
An alternative method also below:

Installing OpenERP 5 on openSuSE 12 servers
Saturday, December 29th, 2012OpenERP version 5 won’t work with python 2.7 installed be default on openSuSE 12.1 server. The trick is to download and install python 2.6 as source and install it parallel to default version.
After that, you’ll have two python executables on the system, python (for 2.7) and python2.6 for the outdated version. The 2.6 version will be used to start the openerp server as below :
python2.6 openerp-server.py -r dbuser -w dbpassword &
Also, you need to install system wide packages needed by default installation of the openERP system. And you must use python2.6 or easy_install-2.6 to install missing python modules. My system was up and running after installing below python modules :
You must choose the same python module version numbers, update versions won’t work.
Error with OpenERP web client
Tuesday, November 20th, 2012After transferring our openERP 5.0.16 server to a new host, we are getting this error message while trying to add an attachment through the web client :
a class that defines __slots__ without defining __getstate__ cannot be pickled
The problem was that the default version of cherrypy was 3.2.2 and the web-server seems to have needed 3.1.2.
You can use ‘easy_install cherrypy==3.1.2’ to install the required version and now the web-server works fine.
Joomla Page Not Found Error with awardspace webhosting
Saturday, November 3rd, 2012Hosting Joomla on awardspace servers will probably cause your Joomla site to not direct to pages and articles correctly and you’ll be getting a lot of pages not found errors – “404 Page Not Found”.
Such issues are usually caused by the SEF functionality of Joomla. There are several things you should check in order to fix this:
- Open your configuration.php file and edit the var $live_site = ‘ ‘; line to match the actual URL of your website. If your website is http://yourdomain.com/joomla/ for example, the line should look like this:
var $live_site = ‘http://yourdomain.com/joomla/ ‘;
- Go to the administrative end of your Joomla website -> Global Configuration and make sure that Search Engine Friendly URLs is set to Yes.
- Also check that Use URL rewriting is set to No. Also in Global Configuration.
- Make sure you have renamed the htaccess.txt file in your Joomla folder to .htaccess.
- Edit .htaccess file and comment out Mod_rewrite in use.
If you follow all of the steps above you should have a fully operational Joomla website with the SEF functionality enabled.
Setting nomachine NX client and FreeNX client to start XFCE Desktop
Saturday, August 18th, 2012NoMachine NX client and FreeNX will start your GUI as KDE or GNOME. But if you choose custom desktop from configuration menu, you can set the command to ‘startxfce4’. This will start the XFCE desktop instead (if installed).
