Обсуждение: Default user after upgrade to 7.3?
I just upgraded a system from RedHat 8.0 to RedHat 9.0,
which also upgrades the version of PostgreSQL.
However, I cannot run pgsql to restore the databases
because I don't know a 'default' user with permission
to run pgsql:
postmaster successfully started
LOG: database system was shut down at 2003-11-06 10:27:18 MST
LOG: checkpoint record is at 0/80193C
LOG: redo record is at 0/80193C; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE
LOG: next transaction id: 480; next oid: 16976
LOG: database system is ready
FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "root"
FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "postgres"
FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "swampler"
Am I missing something obvious? I couldn't find any
mention of needing to add a default user (I thought user
postgres was the default...) in the installation docs.
(And how do I do so, given that I can't run createuser
as anyone...?)
Thanks!

Thanks! I had rebuilt it from the old one, which didn't
use 'ident' authority. It's working now.
Thanks again!!

If you don't know how to work with the authentication that has been set up by the package, change everything that reads "ident" to "trust" and restart the database server. That is not safe, but it will allow you to get in. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net
I think you should look at your pg_hba.com file: /var/lib/pgsql/pg_hba.conf That is the file of "what users can logon from where and how" Perhaps it got clobbered or something.
