Bug reference: 5921
Logged by: sandyt
Email address: sandy@mcw.co.il
PostgreSQL version: 8.3.8
Operating system: windows 2008 server (64 bit)
Description: pg_dump asks for password
Details:
We want to be able to run a nightly backup using the pg_dump command.
Unfortunately, even with the pg_hba.conf fix of adding host postgres â¦
trust,
It still asks for a password.
1. Is this a 64bit issue? If the server was 32bit, would it not ask for a
password?
2. Is there a way of running a dos script that would run the pg_dump
providing a password when prompted?
3. Is there a way of running the pg_dump with a user that doesn't have a
password?
Thanks
