• https://192.168.0.1:8061
• localhost:8061

The UniField login page appears!

1.7 Allow UniField to contact the synchronization server on Windows 7 Pro Firewall

The same way you created an inbound rule, create the outbound rules so that the instance can perform synchronizations with the Production synchronization server.
The port to be open is: TCP-443 (XMLRPC protocols)

1.6 Allow the UniField web port on Windows 7 Pro Firewall

Click on the Windows Start menu at the bottom left. In the Search programs and files field, enter firewall 1 without pressing enter. Click on Windows Firewall with Advanced Security 2
Click on Inbound Rules 1. The inbound rules will now be listed. Click on New Rule… 2 A new wizard will open
Select Port 1 Click Next 2
Select TCP 1 Specific local port 2: enter 8061. If you will be using a different port (i.e. 80) set that instead. If you will be enabling HTTPS (section 1.9) add port 443 (separated with a comma). Click Next.
Select Allow the connection 1 Click Next 2
Select the appropriate options 1 regarding your network configuration. By default select Domain, Private and Public. Click Next 2
Enter a name 1 such as Inbound port TCP:8061 UniField Web Click on Finish 2
Remote connections for the web access are now accepted by the Firewall.

1.5 Change the super admin password

UniField installed, it’s not the time yet to create the database or restore one. First, the super admin password must be changed.
This password is used to create databases. It is very important and should not be communicated.
Connect to UniField with a browser: http://localhost:8061

Click on Databases 1
Click on Password 1
Enter the old password 1. If it’s a first installation, you must enter the default super admin password. Enter the New super admin password and confirm it. Click on Change Password 2

The super admin password is now changed. Keep it somewhere safe because you will need it every time you need to do something regarding the databases (especially backup and restore).

1.4 Safe location to create

Once UniField is installed, you must create a safe place where to put the:

• All-in-One
• the configuration files
• the backups

The UniField machine is the worst possible place as the objective is to be able to restore the instances in case of crash

On the computer where UniField has been installed, you can later connect to the UniField Web Interface using the address http://localhost:8061

1.3.2 Silent installation

Use the following command for silent installation: openerp-allinone-....exe /S
In this example: openerp-allinone-....exe is the AIO
By default:

• OpenERP is installed into C:\Program Files (x86)\msf\Unifield
• PostgreSQL data is installed into: D:\MSF Data\Unifield\PostgreSQL
• PostgreSQL application software is installed into: C:\Program Files (x86)\msf\Unifield\pgsql

UniField is correctly installed and will start automatically when the computer boots up.
On the computer where UniField has been installed, you can later connect to the UniField Web Interface using the address http://localhost:8061

1.2 Getting the AIO

The AIO must be delivered by the OC deployment team. Please always use the latest version.
It is available in SharePoint here

1.1 Requirements.

The All-In-One (AIO) is targeted to be installed on Windows 11 or on Windows Server versions 2019 or 2022.  
The AIO installation requires administrative rights as it is going to install:

• OpenERP Server
• OpenERP Web
• The database PostgreSQL and all the dependencies, such as Windows C++ 2005 Redistributable.

Other important considerations:

• System user account must have English (United States) as Format in the regional settings.
• Once UniField is installed, the web port (default: 8061, but possibly 80 or 443) needs to be open on the firewall to accept inbound connections.
• Some outgoing ports must be opened on the firewall to be able to synchronize; refer to this section
