Why the database manager of my Odoo 11 instance has been disabled?

I have received a compressed Odoo instance as a ZIP file. My purpose was to unzip it and make it work in my computer. I was able to do it with no problem.

Now, I have to make that instance work in another server, so I have moved the instance from my computer to the mentioned server.

The only difference (apparently) between both installations is that in the new server I am using virtualenv to install all the Python3 packages and to run Odoo. In this new server, when I start Odoo, I see the message:

The database manager has been disabled by the administrator

And I have no chance to create a new database from the interface.

The same instance of Odoo, in my computer, shows the database manager to create a new database, as always.

Any ideas? Could be the virtualenv the problem?

When I searched Using IDE for this sentence I found it in this file \web\views\database_manager.html There is a condition to show this sentence it's:

  {% if not list_db %}
  <div class="alert alert-danger text-center">
  The database manager has been disabled by the administrator
  </div>

It's shown when this list_db variable have falsy value. now this variable is passed to this template (html page) by this method:

 def _render_template(self, **d):
    d.setdefault('manage',True)
    d['insecure'] = odoo.tools.config.verify_admin_password('admin')
    d['list_db'] = odoo.tools.config['list_db']
    .....
    .....
    return env.get_template("database_manager.html").render(d)

This means that this value is retrieved from configuration file, So make sure that this value is set to True in the configuration file:

   [options]
   addons_path = .....
   admin_passwd =  ....
   ....
   ....
   list_db = True

Didn't know about this option until know, Very good question as always @forvas.
