The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 3343 Logged by: Richard Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.2.4-1 Operating system: Win2K SP6 Description: Passwords not working Details:
New to PG. Using it on W2k test platform, for test of OpenBravo ERP. Installed (for fourth time) using default settings. Computer is a standalone, running in workgroup mode. Install appeared to go well. However, 1) When I install OpenBravo and provide password for Superuser account, I get an error message that PG cannot validate. I go to pgAdminIII, and it all looks good. 2) When I go to command line for PG, it allows me to create databases WITHOUT password authentication. Why? 3) When I try to create a new user, it will not authenticate. 4) In the cases when it will NOT authenticate due to password, PG identifies me as my OS log-on, not the Superuser or the Account Name from install. OS Services shows PG (running as a service) is running. I've re-cycled it a couple of times. I just don't think you have this Windows thing down yet, but what do I know. I just need help!!!! I am having no anomalous behaviors on the machine (2Gb mem, large SATA drive, AMD 64 series cpu. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
