Hi
I'm trying to add a new DB user with the following command from my client machine:
createuser -h my.host.name -U mysuperusername --pwprompt newusername
I'm getting the following message:
createuser: could not connect to database postgres: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "10.0.0.1", user
"mysuperusername",database "postgres", SSL on
Now, it's true that our pg_hba.conf doesn't allow access to the postgres database. We did this intentionally, as
usuallyno one needs to connect to this database.
So I tried to do
export PGDATABASE=sogis
before the createuser command. But no success. Does anyone know of another way to achieve what I'm trying?
I whish to do it with createuser rather than with the SQL command CREATE USER because this way I can avoid the password
forthe new user to show up anywhere in the history.
I'm on 9.2 on Ubuntu 14.04.
Thank you very much,
Andi
