Your PostgreSQL configuration is matching DSpace's connection attempt to a line in pg_hba.conf specifying the 'ident' authentication method, and the usermap specified in that line doesn't match the username being returned by your host's ident server. So, for example, if you have: host dspace dspace 127.0.0.1/32 ident sameuser then Tomcat must be running as a user named "dspace" or this will fail, because the DBMS will ask the ident server who owns that connection and require that it be 'dspace' (the same username for DBMS and client process). One other possibility is that you don't have an 'ident' service running at all. It's not really very secure, and some sites don't use it. If you run Tomcat as user 'tomcat' (which many distributions set up automatically), and you want to call the PostgreSQL user 'dspace' (which makes a lot of sense), and you want to use 'ident' authentication (but see the warnings in the PostgreSQL documentation), then you'll need a mapping other than 'sameuser'. You could configure: host dspace dspace 127.0.0.1/32 ident dspace and place in 'pg_ident.conf': dspace tomcat dspace HOWEVER, since you mention a password, you probably meant to use a password-based authentication method such as 'md5', 'crypt', 'password', or 'pam'. Those methods should ignore Tomcat's username and depend on the DBMS username and password that you configured in 'dspace.cfg'. I run Tomcat under the username 'tomcat', install and configure DSpace to use the username 'dspace' for the DBMS connection, configure PostgreSQL for 'md5' authentication, and it works well. -- Mark H.
