Hi,
The error is likely occurring due to missing headers
or incorrect specifications in the sections of the config file. Refer to
the Configuration file parser documentation [1] to understand the correct format that configuration files must adhere to.

Hope it helps

The error tells that the file:
/etc/odoo/odoo.conf
has wrong format.
It should have section headers. Example:
[DEFAULT]
ServerAliveInterval = 45
Compression = yes And it should have UTF-8 encoding (without BOM).
I have found it by searching for "configparser.MissingSectionHeaderError: File contains no section headers" in google.
