The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5907 Logged by: Andrew Considine Email address: andrew.consid...@sncorp.com PostgreSQL version: 9.0.1-1 Operating system: Windows XP Description: ODBC % bug Details:
Using a password that contains a "%" symbol does not authenticate while using the ODBC driver. The Postgresql installer accepts this password. The password will even work while logging into PGAdmin. However when connecting through the ODBC driver from one of our C++ applications we receive the following error: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "<username>". We tested this behaviour with the "%" symbol in various positions of the password with the same result. Also, we tested this with "^" which worked as it should and "&" which also worked as it should. It was only the usage of the "%" that failed to work properly while authenticatin via the ODBC driver. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
