Driver version: 42.2.24
PostgreSQL version: Debian 14.0-1.pgdg110+1
Operating system: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
When connecting to the pg database 14.0 and no password (empty) is specified the following error message is returned
"Something unusual has occurred to cause the driver to fail. Please report this exception. Empty value for ‘password’ "
In previous versions of the database (13.4) the password specific error message is returned "The server requested password-based authentication, but no password was provided"
Previous versions of the driver (42.2.*) exhibit the same behaviour when connecting to version 14. The password specific exception is expected rather than the generic message.
jdbc:postgresql://{host}[:{port}]/[{database}]?user=myuser&password=

Hmm, I'm sure they have added SCRAM support, so that theory seems
out. Perhaps you should file a ticket with the JDBC crew.
(pgsql-bugs only deals with bugs in the core server.)
