The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Answer 1

Answer here, that's because some module was missing. search odoo source code with recaptcha_public_key we can see the module name is google_recaptcha .

In your system open Apps page, search that module and install will resolve your problem. Or you can install it by command line bellow (need restart server after that):

./odoo-bin -d <yourdbname> -i google_recaptcha

Answer 2

This message is simply because you try create a record and in the values passed to create it a field is filled in but isn't present in the model.

But with only this error log. I can't more help you.

Possible error:

• In the file __init__.py of your folder models you don't import your file (Example: from. import config)
• In the file __init__.py of your module, you don't import your folder models (from. import models)
• Missing a dependence, file with this field could be in module 1 and you try to create record with this field in module 2, but no depend exist between module 1 and 2.
• Problem this creation of the field.
• Bad updating of module. You add the field but the don't update module. (-u your_module OR with the interface)
