Answer 1

Using following command you will get location of .conf file

locate openerp-server.conf

Now go to that path and open it and check out master password whether it's same as you given while creating a new database.

Answer 2

@Danish

1. Check the tools -> config file and look what are the username and password been set for accessing the database.
2. Check pg_hba.conf file under /etc/postgresql/9.1/main, that it is allowing the connection for the specified database user in tools -> config file.

Answer 3

@Danish the master password should be "admin" it is required to newly create your database

Answer 4

The master password that you are using to create the database is not same as what you have set for the PostgreSQL server.
