PostgreSQL version: 8.0.3
Operating system: Windows XP Pressional
Description: "Invalid username specified" during install
Details:
I am trying to reinstall Postgres 8.0.3 after developing a problem using
psql (command line) where I was getting the "password authentication
failure" message. When I tried to reinstall, I got the "Invalid username
specified: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password" error. If I
change the default user from "postgres" to something else, the installer
will move on and finish, but I still can't use psql at the command line.
What am I missing?
