This just means that the directory /home/postgres wasn't created during installation. I don't think that's a huge problem, though you may want to let the package maintainer about that. Despite that message, you should be logged it as "postgres" and should be able to begin creating databases. > > I'm new on ubuntu and openerp so please help we. > OS----->Debian Ubuntu != Debian. :) It's based on it, but the package repositories are different.
