Need help with old tryton instance

Support System Administrator

Hi,

i have a fairly old tryton instance (4.4.8) which i need to containerize. I managed to install python 2.7 and tryton 4.4.8, but I have trouble getting the custom module to run. when i try python setup.py install i get

error: package directory 'trytond/modules/party' does not exist

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

cheers

What is the content of the custom module you try to install?
Is the setup.py or MANIFEST.in refer to the path trytond/modules/party?

Not as far as I can see. The only mentions for party are in setup.py

...
    packages=[
        'trytond.modules.party',
        'trytond.modules.party.tests',
        ],
    package_data={
        'trytond.modules.party': (info.get('xml', [])
            + ['tryton.cfg', 'view/*.xml', 'locale/*.po']),
        },
...

and in tryton.cfg:

...
depends:
    party
...

It does not make sense for the custom party to package the standard party module.
It looks like to setup.py has been copied from the party module without being adapted.
