Mathieu Guillaume resolved NXBT-327.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Bug
Copy&Paste of my answer in "answers":
Actually, there's two different things here:
when you choose to autoconfigure postgresql in the deb package options, it
will pick a random password and create a database and user with that password,
and set those parameters in nuxeo.conf. It's just a helper to not have to
configure the whole database back-end parameters manually and is not part of
the Nuxeo platform per se.
when you change the password in the startup wizard (or the admin center),
it just impacts the nuxeo.conf parameters.
So yes, if you use the automatic database installation then change the password
the application uses in the wizard, it won't be able to connect to the database.
It's not really a bug, but it can certainly be confusing. We should probably
have a way to hide the database configuration page in the wizard(or make the
fields non-editable) when using the "autoconfigure" option in the package.

> Key: NXBT-327
> URL: https://jira.nuxeo.com/browse/NXBT-327
> Project: Nuxeo ECM Build/Test Environment
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Debian Packages
> Environment: Ubuntu Linux Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
> Reporter: David McKelvie
> Assignee: Julien Carsique
>
> Using Ubuntu Linux Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS I installed nuxeo-dm using
> synaptic. This also installed Postgres.
> During the configuration screens, I saw a password for the postgres
> database user which I did not know (it was blanked out), so I changed
> the password for the nuxeodm user.
> I could then access the webpage http://localhost:8080
> But I could not login using the Administrator/Administrator name/password.
> Investigating with the help of http://forum.nuxeo.com/t/4433/ I saw
> that Nuxeo was failing to connect to the Postgres database.
> Trying
> psql -h localhost -p 5433 -U nuxeodm -W nuxeodm
> manually, I could login using the ORIGINAL nuxeodm password, but not
> with the new password that I had set.
> Looking in /etc/nuxeo-dm/nuxeo.conf I saw
> nuxeo.db.password={original password}
> #nuxeo.db.password={original password}
> nuxeo.db.password={new password}
> ie there were two uncommented nuxeo.db.password lines. It seems as tho
> the postgres database was set up to use the original password, but
> Nuxeo was trying to connect using the new password.
> I got it working by reinstalling Nuxeo and postgres.
> So looks like there is something wrong about the configuration screens
> if you try to use them to change the nuxeodm database user's password.
