I created a new user and then a new DB with that user, where the user is the owner:
-bash-3.00$ createuser -d -P Enter name of user to add: arnuld Enter password for new user: Enter it again: Shall the new user be allowed to create more new users? (y/n) n CREATE USER [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ createdb -O arnuld -U arnuld arnuldforum CREATE DATABASE when I pass this username "arnuld" and the password for "arnuld" to phpBB3 (for installation) it says "could not connect to database" while I can connect to database without any problem. I don't understand why phpbb says there is something wrong with DB settings [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ psql arnuldforum Welcome to psql 7.4.17, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
