Yogesh,

Since you say the problem is solved with the above change, I will apply
it in trunk and close this bug.

Setting a path with 'addons' in it isn't a good idea: the name of that
directory can change from one configuration to another. The whole point
of using '<addon-name>/path/to/the/file.png' is to be free of the addons
directory name.

Title:
  RML based reporting broken for addons with images outside root_path

Status in OpenERP Server:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Currently, in order to be found by OpenERP, image elements within RML
  templates must be specified making use of paths relative to
  'root_path'. With the 'addons_path' functionality, this behaviour
  becomes inconsistent; if an addon is moved to a valid directory
  outside the 'root_path' directory, the reporting process is broken and
  the server raises an IOError exception.

  To deal with this problem, the RML template must contain the full path
  to the image file (which can be anything but flexible), or make use of
  a custom tag to set up the path dynamically.

  Attached is a patch that enables the server to recognise image
  elements with paths relative to the module directory, regardless of
  the addons directory where it is. I.e.:

      <image file="my_addon/images/my_report_image.png" x="0" y="0"/>
