This is an error that I find quite often in openerp 7 (I am not sure about the later versions). There are various causes. To debug the error:

1. Verify that the model exist correctly. In your addons directory/folder there should be a model in the base module.
2. Verify what models was created in postgress using a tool such as pgAdmin III and that all fields were created.
3. Verify that you have the necessary user rights to create the different tables (this should not be a problem - but it is worth a check).
4. Verify that you did not make any changes in the base models that could have lead to the problem - this includes modules that change the base models via inheritance.
5. Verify that the server is properly restarted - this does fix the problem sometimes.
6. Use the command line to update your models. This also sometimes fix the problem.
