Invoice layout problems

If you have a problem with invoice layouts.

Like the information about the invoice is printed in your PDF, but the layout is missing. Then there’s properly a problem with the combination of your odoo installation and the WKHMTLTOPDF program.

To solve it, do the following:

• goto settings.
• parameters.
• • system parameters:

Then add the following key to your system parameters:

report.url with a value of: http://127.0.0.1:8069

 

remarks: The odoo server will send the layout information (which is designed in Qweb) to a module called wkhtmltopdf and odoo will normally get feedback from that module, to build the pdf. Because it cannot established a working connection to wkhtmltopdf, it can only create the invoice only with is own information, and it’s  therefore missing the layout information.

The solution is to provide Odoo with the correct URL, we are overriding the default report.url into the system to use it’s own localhost number (127.0.0.1 followed by the port number odoo is listening on, in this case :8069).

 

Keyboard in the dishwasher

Every computer owner will recognize the problem once in his/her lifetime. Some coffee or worse liquid was spoiled on your keyboard and now it has some strange behavior. Some keys are working, some are not.

Before you throw you keyboard in the garbage and are heading for the store to buy a new one, you can try to do the following:

• 1. Disconnect the cable or batteries as soon as possible.
• 2. Put the keyboard in the dishwasher!
• 3. Let it dry (mine did for more then 1 week).
• 4. Reconnect the keyboard cable or insert the batteries and enjoy you perfectly cleaned and working keyboard again.

Some tips!

• First try without using some cleaning soap, only run the dishwasher with warm water (not to hot, because of warping of the plastic housing/keys could occur).

• If your dishwasher is using a hot dry option, don’t use it, because of deformation of the keyboard housing and/or keys could occur.

Drying the keyboard can take a few days. Mine needed more then one week, before it was working perfectly again.
