Running as user 'root' is a security risk, aborting

I was following this link:

http://www.mindissoftware.com/2014/09/11/Run-Odoo-in-PyCharm-Ubuntu/

I changed the openerp-server.conf file and run the Database located at another machine using host address.

When I run the odoo in Pycharm it throws the error as

Running as user 'root' is a security risk, aborting.

Please help me

Solution

  • You must be trying to run Odoo with the root account: either you logged in as rootor you are running PyCharm/Odoo with sudo.
