The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 8291 Logged by: Lloyd Albin Email address: lal...@fhcrc.org PostgreSQL version: Unsupported/Unknown Operating system: Windows 7 (64-bit) Description:
Tested on Windows 7 (64-bit) Postgres 9.3.0 Beta 2 -> Windows 7 (64-bit) Postgres 9.3.0 Beta 2 Windows 7 (64-bit) Postgres 9.3.0 Beta 1 -> SUSE Linux (64-bit) Postgres 9.0 I have found that if you change the password in the USER MAPPING, that postgres_fdw will not use it unless the current password fails or you close and re-open your postgres connection. I found this while testing to see if the USER MAPPING's supports MD5 passwords and they appeared to until the next day when I found that they no longer worked because I had closed and re-opened my connection. The second error that I found is in the documentation of ALTER USER MAPPING. It incorrectly says how to update a users password.
