I had the same issue before. I recreated my password with md5hash in the database and used that in the config file. Bingo, all works.

I'm restoring my server, and trying to get owncloud to use my backed-up postgresql database. I have the database created following this: http://doc.owncloud.org/server/5.0/admin_manual/configuration/configuration_ database.html , and it has all my old data. The config file looks like this: <?php $CONFIG = array ( 'instanceid' => '212e71e403343', 'passwordsalt' => 'c8f5c73ae621e6373a75a580f305b2', 'datadirectory' => '/media/data/owncloud/data', 'dbtype' => 'pgsql', 'dbname' => 'owncloud_database', 'dbhost' => 'localhost', 'dbtableprefix' => 'oc_', 'dbuser' => 'owncloud', 'dbpassword' => 'MyFancyPassword', 'installed' => true, 'maxZipInputSize' => 0, 'allowZipDownload' => true, ); I have verified that the database login works with psql -d owncloud_database -U owncloud -W and entering the password in the config file. However, owncloud says "Failed to connect to database," and my postgresql log says 'FATAL: password authentication failed for user "owncloud".' What's going on here? Any ideas? _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
