hi, I describe my steps: 1. installed postgresql 8.2 via apt-get (ubuntu gutsy) 2. # sudo -u postgres psql template1 3. template1=# CREATE ROLE kokomo WITH LOGIN CREATEDB PASSWORD 'kokomo'; 4. template1=# \q 5. # createdb kokomo_dev -U kokomo -W
Here I receive: createdb: could not connect to database postgres: FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user "kokomo" So, given that I do not fail submitting the password for kokomo when requested... what could be the problem? Have I to create a system user for kokomo? If I use pgadmin3 I see the kokomo user with it own encrypted password and I can create the DB with kokomo as a owner. So what am I missing in the command line? Thanks for help. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
