I use the deb file for production and the source for development.Is this the correct way to do things?

I think that the deb might have certain optimizations(pyo or pyc) for production environment.

But since I have to move my custom modules, one at a time to the production,I find it increasingly difficult.

The actual addons path is here

(1) /usr/share/pyshared/openerp/addons

But the init.d points to 

(2) /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/openerp/addons

In some modules the __init__.py is in 1 (eg: web_rpc)

and for some its in 2 (eg: hr)

What the actual difference btw 

http://nightly.openerp.com/6.1/nightly/src/

and 

http://nightly.openerp.com/6.1/nightly/deb/

I haven't tried the deb files, because we use the Ubuntu all-in-one script from openerpappliance.com. It downloads the source from Launchpad and then runs the deployment scripts for you. It will also do updates after you've installed.

We're very happy with the 5.0 version, but we haven't tried the 6.1 version, yet.

you can do with 6.1 is you can give multiple addons path to the your config file in comma separated , or else you can create link in addons folder for your customized folder while you can keep cumized module where you want, just put link(shortcut) to the addon sfoderl of your. this will give you flexibility.

  • Thanks.But I am customizing some of the built-in modules, directly without inheriting(I know its not recommended). I move(overwrite) the files to `/usr/share/pyshared/openerp/addons` after development. – Jibin Jul 31 '12 at 04:56
  • ok src is basically a source file which like ready for development extract and run from wherever you want. While Deb are ready to deploy package you can install them like system service and it is one lick installation on system like Debian, Ubuntu. – ifixthat Jul 31 '12 at 06:08
  • I am sorry but What Optimization you talking about ?? Are you trying to say that Improvements done by you ?? – ifixthat Jul 31 '12 at 07:13
  • No.I am asking is there any optimization done for production environment in the deb (except installing as a service) ? – Jibin Jul 31 '12 at 09:57
