custom addons

[IHTM]

Hey, how can I add my custom addons?
I added my addon (rental) like in the image below and updated Apps, but nothing shows up.

Hi @IHTM , your custom addon put in "addons" is correct. Try restarting the Odoo container and then update the Apps again.

$ docker-compose restart

Please make sure that the Odoo container has permission to read the addon folder "rental". On Ubuntu, you can set the full permission for everyone with:

$ sudo chmod -R 777 rental

Hope that it resolves your issue :)

It works, thank you!

Though, I gave permission to the addons folder before. Do I need to assign permission every time I got a new custom addon?

Just assign the permission if the addon is not found. This issue often happens when you copy the custom addon from another machine / project.
ps. I don't recommend to assign full permission (777) on the folder.

hello,
I still can't fing the app i with to install even after giving full permissions.
what i did (maybe i'm wrong):

1. unzipped app on my laptop
2. copied the folder in addons folder on remote server using winscp
3. chmod -R 777 folder
4. restarted contatiner (stopped/starded too)
5. went to apps -> removed filter -> refresh

am I missing something?
