Hello AIT YAHIA Idir,


I hope you’re doing well!


Could you please set the password to False in the config.cfg file as follows:

    db_password = False


To proceed, please open the terminal and run the following commands:


1. Install PostgreSQL and its client:-

    sudo apt install postgresql postgresql-client

   

2. Create the PostgreSQL user:-

    sudo -u postgres createuser --createdb --username postgres --no-createrole --no-superuser --pwprompt odoo


    Alternatively, you can use:-


    sudo -u postgres psql -c "\du"

    sudo -u postgres createuser --createdb --password odoo

    sudo -u postgres createdb your_database_name -O odoo


3. Finally, restart PostgreSQL:

    sudo systemctl restart postgresql


I Hope this information proves helpful to you.

Thanks & Regards,
