php password authentication failed for user ... - Mailing list pgsql-general

Hello my pg_hab.conf has this entry:

host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32            md5

When I try to use PHP to connect to the Database I get

"postgres password authentication failed for user ..."

The PHP-code looks like


global $dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass, $dbname, $use_pgsql, $dbconn;

if ($use_pgsql)
{
        $connect = "host=$dbhost user=$dbuser password=$dbpass
dbname=$dbname";
        echo $connect;
        if (!($dbconn = pg_connect($connect)))
        {
                open_page();
                ErrSQL("Unable to connect to database.");
        }

When I try to connect via
psql -U user  -h localhost -W database
I can connect without error.

I also use SSL connections, is this the problem? or in other words is
there a way to connect php via (postgres) ssl?
