Once the Odoo server is ready and running, there will come a time when you need to install updates on Odoo. This involves two steps: first to get the new versions of the source code (server or modules), and second to install them.
If you have followed the approach described in the Installing from the source code section, we can fetch and test the new versions in the staging repository. It is strongly advised that you make a copy of the production database and test the upgrade on it. If odoo-prod is your production database, this can be done with the following commands:
$ dropdb odoo-stage$ createdb odoo-stage $ pg_dump odoo-prod | psql -d odoo-stage $ sudo su odoo $ cd ~/.local/share/Odoo/filestore/ $ cp -al odoo-prod ...
