The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2433 Logged by: Jacques Gollion Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.1.3 Operating system: Windows 2000 SP4 Fr Description: Using pg_dump in a .bat : Cannot avoid asking for user Name and Password Details:
I am trying to automatically save my database every day using the scheduled Tasks manager. I put pg_dump command in a .bat file containing the following line : C:\postgres\bin\pg_dump -U im -h localhost -Z 0 -u -v -F c -f F:/backup/dump/backup110506__ano pdb2000 The windows user name is im. There is a database role that is im. In the directory C:\Documents and Settings\im\Application Data\postgresql there is a file named pgpass.conf containing the following lines : localhost:*:*:im:imhe localhost:5432:*:postgres:imhe I have checked with sysint/filemon.exe that the file pgpass.conf is read. In fact I have just to type 'Enter' twice to start dump. I do not understand what is wrong in my system to avoid typing anything. Thank you in advance for your help. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
