[6.1][POS] No product appears when accessing POS menu

[Carlos Ch.]

I am trying to test the 6.1 new POS interface.
The installation is working, I installed the point_of_sale module, then I go to "Point of sale" menu and get an empty screen.
I created 2 test products with images, and assigned to them POS categories.

The server log doesn't show errors
the web-cleint log:

REMARK: I SEE A BUG WITH FIREBUG THAT SAYS:
"uncaught exception: The key pos.ui was not found"

I attached a screen capture of the aspect of the screen and the bug

thanx

This is a well know problem that occurs because you launch the server and the web client separately. To run the pos you need to run the web client in embedded mode (like for most web modules).

[Carlos Ch. (solracch)]

Hi,

can you please give me more information about this embedded mode?
I've never heard of it, and I've been working with OpenERP for some years now

thanx

You just have to:
- make sure [path-to-web]/addons is in the addons_path variable in the server configuration file,
- connect from your browser to the server on port 8069 (http://localhost:8069) and ignore the client (no need to run it).
