Re: weird problem with pgadmin & postgres on debian

Are you sure you're starting the same installation/cluster? Manually/init shouldn't make any difference if so.

ok, i fixed it by removing the postmaster daemon from init.d and starting postgres manually every time i need it, don't
nowwhy but it works, maybe it's a problem of user rights, but i'm too noob to know :P 





----------------------------------------------------------------

hello there, (it's the first time i use a mailing list...wow!)So, here's my problem: I've installed postgresql on
debianas well as pgadmin(everything updated to last version).Now, when i try to access my server on localhost with
pgadmin,i cannot enter because it asks me the password. But i have no password, as it's just a first-time
learning-purposeinstall! If i simply leave the password field empty, it rejects my login( "Error connecting to the
server:fe_sendauth: no password supplied"). But, if i try to access the server with 'psql testdatabase' from a
terminal,i am able to enter, and work normally.I've also installed postgresql & pgadmin on windows xp (database
differentfrom the linux one) and pgadmin acts normally, letting me login and managing databases without any
problem.What'swrong?thx
