[Bug 1016552] Re: error messages are not user-friendly

 

Possible solutions:

Configuration setting to disable stack traces from errors - users should
not see that.

Provide mechanism for the user to forward the error to the admin, maybe
send an email, so that it may be investigated further. This could also
be used to create meaningful bug reports for you.

Modules/Addons should trap exceptions and provide meaningful errors to
the user, perhaps even attempt to find out what happened? - e.g. if the
user doesn't have permission to do something, say so in a simple
mannner. if the query failed because of some field missing, perhaps some
required addon/module was not installed, etc. Not just stack traces!

Title:
  error messages are not user-friendly

Status in OpenERP Server:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Most of the errors are basically just stack traces and do not give the
  user a clear idea what happened. The same errors sent thru xml-rpc are
  the error people can get thru the use of the web ui.
