OpenERP module xml ValidateError

votes

I'm learning OpenERP development, and I'm stuck in a problem, which I think should be obvious.

I made a very simple module but I can't install it. It keeps saying

ValidateError Error occurred while validating the field(s) arch: Invalid XML for View Architecture!

Here is my module :

init.py

import testmod
__openerp__.py

{
'name': "Test Module",
'description': "Basic example of a (future) web module",
'category': 'Hidden',
'depends': ['base'],
'data': [
    'test_view.xml',
],
'installable': True,
'application': False,
'auto_install': False,
}

testmod.py

from openerp.osv import fields, osv

class testmod_test(osv.Model):
    _name = 'testmod.test'
    _description = 'Test Model'
    _columns = {
    'test1': fields.char('Test 1', size=32, required=True, help='Test 1 help'),
    'test2': fields.float('Test 2', help='Test 2 help'),
    }

testmod_test()

test_view.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<openerp>
<data>

<record id="testmod_test_form" model="ir.ui.view">
    <field name="name">testmod.test.form</field>
    <field name="model">testmod.test</field>
    <field name="arch" type="xml">
      <form string="Test" version="7.0">  
        <field name="test1" />
        <field name="test2"/>

      </form>
    </field>
</record>

<record id="testmod_test_tree" model="ir.ui.view">
  <field name="name">testmod.test.tree</field>
  <field name="model">testmod.test</field>
  <field name="arch" type="xml">
    <tree string="Test">
      <field name="test1" />
       <field name="test2"/>
    </tree>
  </field>
</record>

<record model="ir.actions.act_window" id="action_testmod_test">
  <field name="name">Test</field>
  <field name="res_model">testmod.test</field>
  <field name="view_type">form</field>
  <field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>
</record>

<menuitem 
          name="Test" 
          id="menu_testmod_test" 

          />

<menuitem 
          name="Test sub" 
          parent="menu_testmod_test"
          id="menu_testmod_test_sub" 
          />
<menuitem
        name="Sub Test"
        id="menu_subtest"
        parent="menu_testmod_test_sub"
        action="action_testmod_test"    
        />


</data>
</openerp>

Here is the full log error :

Cant see any obvious problems (i'm more familiar with version 6.1 though) - try posting on help.openerp.com as well. – TimoSolo
Hello, I tried to install it in 7.0 as well as trunk and it works properly no problem in my case. I am able to save records also. :) – Pooja

Try commenting out the data section in openerp.py once install and re-enable the data section and upgrade the module. Sometimes openerp fails to actually create the model and causes errors. This might solve you rproblem

I have created a module with the mentioned file contents and its installed without any issue. Please check your file names and module structure are correct.

The exception AttributeError happens because the module is not installed properly.

The function fields_view_get tries to find the fields of your model, but they are missing.

self.pool.get(view.model).fields_view_get(cr, uid, view_id=view.id, view_type=view.type, context=context) AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute

Can you check if the module is installed or expect it the resume? Check the ir.model.fields table by doing in psql select * from ir.model.fields order by id desc this should show the 2 fields, but i guess the will be not in the table. Mayby only one of the 2. Remove the missing fields from the xml view and try to resume the installation. Restart OpenErp server, uninstall and reinstall the module. I had the same issue and was only able to fix after i got the modules completely installed , restarted server and removed and tried again
