This issue has been solved. See solution.
Hi guys, my company just recently get a project to upgrade the SEPM 11 to 12. And the problem I am facing now is we dont have the encryption password cause the previous IT admin who installed it has resign and couldnt get any information from him.
I did do alot of research as like https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/recover-dba-password or https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/how-find-database-password-odbc. Both I did try the way they teach but the problem is I couldn't get the string you guys mention.
Is there any solution?

Unfortunately I don't think there is any other way to recover the DB password.

I am afraid if you cannot recover the password using the php.ini "trick", your only way our is to install the SEPM 12.1 new from scratch and reconnect the orphaned SEP clients using either sylink replacer tool or by replacing the communications settings on them:
