update user set password = password('dima') where user = 'dima'
 
that should fix your problem.

Subject: [GENERAL] problem with password

I create the database by following:
 
mkdir -p /usr/local/pgsql/data
chown postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data
su postgres
 
initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
createdb appc
psql appc
 
Then i create a same user:
 
create user dima with password 'dima'
\q
 
Then:
 
psql appc -U dima -W
Password: __Input any password__ - enter to postgresql.
 
Why i can access to database with any password? What is my error?
