Обсуждение: About "ALTER USER" command
Good day for You. I need to change password of the usuary POSTGRES using the commando "ALTER USER". This change I must do it by means of a program .bat in quiet way. I have the following instruction in .bat program : psql -S "ALTER USER postgres WITH PASSWORD 'xxtyod';" But when I execute this program, it requests user password to me. It is possible that some commando exists who is due to place before so that he does not request ANY password. then, it would be thankful indicated to me what commands is used so that it does not request any type of password nor of user. Solely that executes the instruction that I mentioned to them previously. Again, thanks for its valuable collaboration. Sincerely , | |||

Alvaro: In effect I published the file pgpass.conf and I added the following line: localhost:5432:*:postgres:kklliu However. I continued my instruction and follows without working to me. Exists the way to invoke psql that is not of interactive way so that It alters password of a user with no need to be in psql? With the commando psql - S ALTER USER
it continues saying to me that that data base does not exist, still modified the file pgpass.conf. If you know some way in that this can be done, would be thankful to you immensely.

Sure. It's asking for the password of the user who will connect to the database and issue the SQL command. There are several ways to avoid this; the simplest is to create an appropiate .pgpass file (pgpass.conf in Windows). The exact location is something like %APPDATA%/postgresql, but better look it up in the documentation. -- Alvaro Herrera Valdivia, Chile ICBM: S 39º 49' 18.1", W 73º 13' 56.4" "Having your biases confirmed independently is how scientific progress is made, and hence made our great society what it is today" (Mary Gardiner) | |||
