I think I've found your issue. Here is the way to trigger it: 1. Start PostgreSQL 2. Start pgAdmin 3. Connect to your server without typing a password (thanks to .pgpass) 4. Disconnect from your server 5. Stop PostgreSQL (not pgAdmin) 6. Connect to your server --> error because PostgreSQL is not started 7. Start PostgreSQL 8. Connect to your server --> pgAdmin asks for your password if you click OK here without typing your password, then pgAdmin records an empty password in the .pgpass file The fix I pushed a few minutes ago doesn't allow pgAdmin to record an empty password. I suppose it'll fix your issue. If you can test the current code (master or REL-1_14_0_PATCHES), that would be great. -- Guillaume http://blog.guillaume.lelarge.info http://www.dalibo.com -- Sent via pgadmin-support mailing list (pgadmin-support@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgadmin-support
