So you are talking about recovering the Administrator password, not the Master Database password?

I edited your question and removed my answer.

If you have access to openerp-server.conf (your active OpenERP server config file). e.g: /etc/openerp-server.conf

The password is written anywhere in that file:

admin_passwd = ********

The config file is also read from ~/.openerp_serverrc

I have update it dynamically from database admin panel, till not able to recover.

Have you tried restarting the server with the admin_passwd set in your conf file?

.openerp_serverrc

Default admin master password is stored in openerp-server.conf

but its not given forgotten one.

Master password for openerp will found at .openerp_serverrc file.

Which located at home directory

Open Terminal

user@ubuntu: cat .openerp_serverrc [options] addons_path = -------------------
admin_passwd = admin
csv_internal_sep = ,

Here you found your master admin password.

For those in windows, inside the Odoo installation folder, just go to the "server" folder/directory and you'll find the odoo.conf

in your openerp-server.conf, comment line that contain admin_passwd = , then open your odoo. you will be asked to set new master password

if you change it manually on openerp-server.conf, your password will be saved as plain text, not encrypted

There is an confusing mix of terminoly from odoo since:

The "master password" is named "admin_passwd" in the config file (usually, "odoo.conf".) This leads to confusion, since there is no "master" user anywhere in Odoo.

The "database admin" password (one for each indiviual database) is stored (Odoo 12+) inside the postgres database. It's also encrypted, so you can only clear it and reset it in the web interface.

The admin IS the master.

If you are talking about the OpenERP admin user password, you can recover it if your database passwords aren't encrypted. (as for any other OpenERP user password)

  SELECT login, password FROM res_users WHERE login = 'admin';

link does not helpfull to reset master password.

I saw Yohanes' correct response, and suggested my answer to a related question as additional reading to help with a broader understanding. You have ambiguous terminology that confused Yannick. The answer I refer to attempts a disambiguation of the different password type names.

If it's additional reading, it shouldn't be posted as an Answer. It would be best to add this as a Comment wither to the question, or to a correct answer.
