Odoo 8 - Oca Add-on added in container but not shown in odoo

[XtremXpert]

Hi,

I did start and odoo 8 using your example docker-compose but if I add server-tools in oca-dependencies.txt, I saw the git clone while starting the docker, if I go in (docker exec bash) I can saw all the directory under /opt/odoo/additional_addons/server-tools

I also saw "openerp: addons paths: ['/opt/odoo/data/addons/8.0', u'/opt/odoo/additional_addons/server-tools', u'/opt/odoo/sources/odoo/addons', '/opt/odoo/sources/odoo/openerp/addons']" but if I go in the module menu to install, even if I update the module list, I can not find any of those OCA modules.

btw: I am admin and I have enable technical feature...

Any help is welcome

@XtremXpert thanks for reporting.

This is strange because all signs looks green (odoo.conf is properly generated and the directory is there).
One potential reason for the issue might be that the directory of the addons does not belong to the same user running Odoo in the docker. You can easily check either in the docker or in the mapped directory the ownership via ls -al.

Can you share your dc file too so that we reproduce the environment?

Thank you for your fast reply

this is my dc

services:

  postgres:
    image: postgres:9.5
    volumes:
      - /srv/odoo8/postgres:/var/lib/postgresql/data
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_USER=odoo
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=M4uxd3p4553

  odoo:
    image: elicocorp/odoo:8.0
    command: start
    ports:
      - 8069:8069

      - ODOO_DB_USER=odoo
      - ODOO_DB_PASSWORD=M4uxd3p4553

I realy thing it is not a premission issue as everything belong to odoo user:

And when I restart my docker, I clearly see '/opt/odoo/additional_addons/server-tools' is in the addon path

Any help welcome

Hi @XtremXpert

Thanks for reporting your issue.

I don't see the oca_dependencies.txt in the folder /opt/odoo/additional_addons, how come? Also, there's a typo in your issue report (oca-dependencies.txt with a -).

Please note that the addons paths is built based on the content of that file (or the environment variable ADDONS_REPO), whether or not there are folders inside /opt/odoo/additional_addons.

Could you please clarify this point?
