Description of problem: As I tried to start the tinyerp-server it told me that there is no user tinyerp Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): tinyerp-server-3.3.0-2.fc5 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install tinyerp-server 2. make the init as user postgres: tinyerp-server --init=all 3. /etc/init.d/tinyerp-server start Actual results: error message that role tinyerp does not exist Expected results: Maybe creation of user or hint in README files. Additional info:
tinyerp-server package installs a config file in /etc/tinyerp-server.conf with all default values. The docs at http://tinyerp.org about database access are a bit unclear as I see. So, you should create one db user, one database that is owned by this user, try all with the PostgreSQL command line client psql and then set these values to the variables (db_*) in the config file. You should also be familiar with PostgreSQL administration at least a bit. I will try to prepare some Fedora oriented post-installation notes and include them in the next package version.
And here are the steps: as a root run: su -c "psql template1" postgres then in psql client: create user tinyerp; create database terp with owner "tinyerp"; \q again as root: service tinyerp-server start This works with the default config file for TinyERP and also default setup of PostgreSQL. At least on my FC4 machine.
I think I also might have used wrong template.
fixed now. ty.
