it seems that they just changed the way to do it, but the way to configure it still undocumented...
By default attachments are stored in the database. You may choose to store them on the filesystem by setting an ir.config.parameter(Settings->Technical->Parameters-System parameters) named ir_attachment.location Example if you set ir_attachment.location to file:///filestore They will be stored in the filesystem at openerp root_path/filestore, the new system uses sha1 to generate the filename so that duplicate files don't take more space. Only the file:/// scheme is implemented, modules can implement additional scheme like amazons3:/// In database mode the data is stored in ir_attachment.db_datas. Filestore mode file name is stored in ir_attachment.db_datas_fname. Those names suck but we kept them for backwards compatibility. http://help.openerp.com/question/709/how-to-implement-knowledge-management/ 2013/2/14 Juan Cristobal Lopez Arrieta <juancristo...@gmail.com> > Yes, actually I had about 80 gbytes of documents in a filesystem. > I end up with a 90+ Gbyte database. > > It was easy to rsync filesystem than deal with large backups. > > Wondered, any chance to get back the choice? > > > On Thu, Feb 14, 2013 at 9:04 AM, Houssine BAKKALI < > houssine.bakk...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hi Community, >> >> In OpenERP version 7.0, it seems that it's no more possible to store the >> attachment documents in the filesystem.
