How to solve "No module named" error in odoo?

Question

I have my custom module which has only security folder contains XML file and manifest file then view folder which has xml file.

Do I need to put init file even if I don't have models folder in my module?

My custom module couldn't be installed. It shows error as "no module named" error odoo.

Any help must be appreciatable.

I couldn't find anything inside Odoo docs but according to an answer on Odoo forum right here - __init__.py is always necessary.

I believe it is Python requirement. Odoo modules are also Python packages, and init is required for package discovery. More on that here.
