I tried keeping the module in core addons path.
I ran ./odoo.py shell -d my_db_name , on terminal, but it didn't jump to the python console and returns to normal command prompt.

I same problem hardik-empiprotechnologies i am install module shell in database down server and start with ./odoo.py shell -d my_db_name --addons-path="dir/module/shel" and noting console returns to bash

how to run shell in jupyter notebook , any idea ?
