Sample server config file openerp-server.conf ports name

[fooflare]

Version 6.0-dev on platform Ubuntu10.10

The sample configuration file for server has the port names wrong.

Suggested changing the parameter option port with xmlrpc_port and netport with netrpc_port.

Hello Amós,

Could you be more specific as to what sample configuration file you are referring to?
Where did you find it?

The normal procedure to obtain a sample configuration file is to start the server with the -c and -s options:
    ./openerp-server.py -s -c openerp.sample.conf
and this sample file uses the correct variable names, as far as I can see.

Thanks!

Hello Olivier,

this morning we tried to execute two servers at the same machine, when we changed the listening port for netrpc and xmlrpc in the config file, we found that the variable "port" and "netport" didn't change them. We were using the openerp-server.conf that you can find in doc, we copied it in the root installation directory and execute the server like you wrote. The configuration file was working because the database user changes were working but the ports dindn't change. When we put "xmlrpc_port" variable instead of "port" it worked correctly. We found in the openerp documentation in server configuration and we saw that for netrpc we had to use "netport" variable but it doesn't work when we changed it but worked with "netrpc_port". I suggested the change of "port" variable that appears in doc/openser-server.conf to avoid the same problem we found. I think those variables changed in version 6 from version 5 and we had that confusion.

Thanks and we apologize for any inconveniences

Hello,

I am confirming this issue as the name of variable for xmlrpc port as "port" in doc folder's configuration file confusing the user as actual configuration file takes variable as "xmlrpc_port".

Thanks.

The openerp-server.conf sample configuration file was corrected for v6 in revision 3290 <email address hidden>
