Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
Ive used my odoo install version 9 for about 6 months now on a remote server running centos7.
Today I logged out to backup the database and then when I try to log back in, i get wrong login/password. I checked my conf file on the remote server and the password is indeed the right one. What could be the problem?
I tried the password changer script but got this error in the terminal:
There are 2 passwords, one is the master password (superadmin password), which you use for the database manager. This password is set in the openerp-server.conf file, you can look it up there. The other password is the password of the admin user of a particular database. This password is encrypted (from version 9.0 on) and stored in the database. In order to reset this password check this issue: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/issues/9806#issuecomment-255487372
Great, thanks. I tried it but I got that error in the updated OP.
Do it manually as described by msteinfeld in his answer, don't use a python script if you do not understand it.
1. Use the live chat to ask your questions.
2. The operator answers within a few minutes.
You mean the user login password or master password?
The login password for the administrator account that is automatically created when odoo is installed
