Description: dropdb and creatdb with pgpass.conf file
Details:
In order to automatized the password on commands like pg_dump, dropdb and
creatdb, I created a pgpass.conf file with
"localhost:5432:02HH65:superuser:xxxxxxx"
With the pg_dump command, it's OK
with dropdb and creatdb, system asks me for the password.
If I replace "02HH65" with "*" like "localhost:5432:*:superuser:xxxxxxx",
it's OK for dropdb and creatdb.
Why do dropdb and creatdb can't recognize my database name?
