Обсуждение: JDBC bug?

Dear List,

I found the following bug:
Connect to database with password that contains special chars (E.g.:
Nyárfa10)  DriverManager.getConnection( dbUrl,   user,  pwd); will fail
with:
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: FATAL: password authentication failed
for user "xy"

jdbc driver: 8-3-603 with 8.3.6 postgresql
 From pgadmin connection is good with 'Nyárfa10' password.

Best Regards,
    Ferenc

A change to fix this has been made to the 8.4 driver series, so you will
need to try the 8.4dev release.  It sends the password in UTF-8, which
means you must set the password when connected to a UTF-8 database so it
gets stored that way it the database.
