frankvh Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Hello, Just wondering if anyone has had any experience installing OpenERP here on hawkhost? Is it something that can be done with shared hosting, or does it need a VPS? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 It will not run on our servers or even on a VPS as it requires windows: The server installation works on: Windows 2000Windows XPWindows VistaWindows Server 2000Windows Server 2003Windows Server 2008 with disks formatted in NTFS (not a FAT or FAT32 partition).

frankvh Posted November 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 Thanks for the reply Tony. Maybe we're talking about 2 different things? I'm referring to this: http://www.openerp.com/ It installs on linux machines, currently uses the postgres database (although mysql support is in test), etc. Installation details are here: http://doc.openerp.com/install/linux/index.html It appears to require a whole bunch of python libraries. Although I'm guessing from your response, the simple answer would be, "Nope, never tried it" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagsgroove Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Just came across this, and I'd be curious as well. I've been running OpenERP locally on an Ubuntu Server for some time, but am looking to move this into a hosted environment if I can. If it's of any help, Ubuntu does now have OpenERP Server (and OpenERP client) in it's package repositories, so couldn't it just potentially be a matter of using those packages to at least get it installed, then simply apply the updates to the latest version? I'm not currently using Hawk Host (currently everything is hosted locally), but am very interested in moving to them. And while the OpenERP question doesn't make/break the decision, it would definitely be a 'nice to have' for my needs. But like you asked, would this need to fall under the shared hosting or the VPS model? Or neither? (which is fine too). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagsgroove Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Also just found that HawkHost uses CentOS as the server operating system. Not a problem at all, but just didn't want to confuse anyone with the Ubuntu comment in my prior post. Like I said...am still looking around/checking out HawkHost. But am very impressed with what I'm finding so far, and many of the posts in the forums have helped point me in the direction I think I need. Looks like the Reseller Hosting may be a starting point for me since migrating websites/mail servers is a higher priority than migrating OpenERP.

Cody R. Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Unfortunately you cannot run this on our shared services, we have a strict policy against any servers or daemons being ran. That being said it looks like it would run fine on a VPS - it just needs those python libraries and it should be good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
