"Update modules list" is not working properly.

[Scribder]

Hi everybody,

Im using OpenERP 7.0 of 2013-02-05, under Ubuntu 11.10, i've same issue using: MFirefox 19.0 & Google-Chrome.

Hope this concerne the OpenERP-Web .. not the Framework..

So my issue, is that i created a new module, without any views, no XML files..just python files, to inherit from sale.order object..I checked all access rights to this module, and i did the __openerp__.py file as needed for the OpenERP 7.0.

1- Now when i do "update modules list" from settings side..i can't see my module in the list..nor from "Apps" menu, not by desactivating filters, i tried to search by summary, by name, by category...but nothing, i can't see my module there....This is the issue..

2- But Searching around, i found that if i press in "Installed modules" , then i desactivate filter of "installed", then search my module , i found it lastly !!!! Verry strange.

I've no idea about this, but i think it should be a bug of web client, or a bad handling of objects....

N.B. : One last thing, just when pressing "installed module" , that i can see in URL the "ir.module.module" Object...

Hi, hope someone will appear soon!

Again i have another remarque about this point, now when having a look about this two different "Views", when clicking in "Apps" and when clicking in "Installed modules", views are different as i didn't expect, those are differences, maybe its new concept in OpenERP steel not handling right way?? :

- Apps: Description, Changelog, Dependencies, Tabs are in this view, without any Button to uninstall or install or upgrade.

- Installed modules: Description, Technical data, features Tabs are in this view, with ability to upgrade, install or uninstall modules !!

Please if its not about a bug, or wrong handling, if someone could explain the concept??

Indeed, that's exactly it: Apps are not local applications (installed or not), they're applications available from apps.openerp.com (the future-new-one which is not in production yet I think).

The rather badly named "Installed", on the other hand, is the old "Modules" with a default filter showing only installed modules. If you remove this filter you will see all locally available modules, which should include your own module barring other issues.

Closing this bug as invalid as "update" is — as far as I know — working correctly, but I will readily admit I also got confused by this change.

Hi Xavier,

Thank you for clarification, and yes, i knew about the new One click Feature to install Modules directly from apps repository...and would like to clarify that i installed all modules from Sources...its little bit confusing, but lets say all featured modules are Apps from now ..!!

Also, for me now, i have no issue since i got the idea, and i catched another user from linkedin that faced a such issue and it takes him 2 days untill he resolve that, "maybe he didn't consider this info", and as you said, "Installed Modules" menu is extremly badly named...maybe to help Other Users we should notice that.

So Kindly, "maybe" we can propose a patch to rename the old "installed modules" into "Modules" or something like that, and make visible the difference...!!

Xavier!!
I May know, its nomore about OpenERP Web Client,

Do you think should i report that, or let it down??

"""
base/module/module_view.xml:174: <field name="name">Installed Modules</field>
base/module/module_view.xml:185: <menuitem id="menu_module_tree" parent="menu_management" name="Installed Modules" sequence="30" action="open_module_tree" />
"""

Well technically reporting it to the server can't hurt I guess. If it's not already been reported.

Ok Great, thank you Xavier!

Need to change menu name .

[Scribder (scribder)]

Hi Dear,

Yes actually i think so, that this needs changes in Menu Names, so no one will be confused.

Thanks.
