Hi,


The error usually occurs because the Odoo startup command is missing required parameters or the database connection details are incorrect. When running Odoo locally but connecting to a remote database, you must ensure that PostgreSQL is configured to accept remote connections (via pg_hba.conf and postgresql.conf), and that the user, password, and database specified are valid and accessible from your machine.

You should also verify that your addons path points to the full directory location (e.g., /home/dev/odoo/addons), not just addons.

In short, confirm that PostgreSQL allows external connections, double-check your credentials, include the full path to your addons directory, and ensure you’ve installed all Python dependencies before running Odoo. These are the most common causes of the startup error.
