Quick start

  1. Deploy from the Azure Marketplace (Get It Now → Create), choosing your SSH key at the Administration step.
  2. Allow inbound SSH (22) for yourself plus the application port(s): 8069 (web UI) — restrict to your own IP where possible. The in-image firewall already allows them; only the Network Security Group (NSG) keeps them closed.
  3. Open http://<VM-IP>:8069/ and sign in as admin on database `odoo` (see First login below).
  4. Install the apps you need from the Apps menu, then put Odoo behind a TLS reverse proxy for production.

First login / credentials

This image generates its admin credential on the VM at first boot — nothing is pre-set. SSH into the VM with the username + key you chose at deploy, then print the generated credential:

ssh <your-username>@<VM-IP>
sudo cat /var/lib/odoo/admin-password

Sign in as admin on database `odoo` (ODOO_ADMIN_LOGIN); ODOO_MASTER_PASSWORD in the same file protects the database manager.

  1. Print the credential file: ODOO_DATABASE=odoo, ODOO_ADMIN_LOGIN=admin, ODOO_ADMIN_PASSWORD, and ODOO_MASTER_PASSWORD (database manager).
  2. Open http://<VM-IP>:8069/ and sign in as admin with ODOO_ADMIN_PASSWORD.
  3. Change the admin password (Preferences → Account Security) and delete the file once stored securely.

Sign in as admin (unless noted), then change the password immediately. The file is root-only and can be deleted once the password is stored securely.
