Re: facing problem with createdb. - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

Did you read http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Running_%26_Installing_PostgreSQL_On_Native_Windows ?

Why not use prebuilt versions (see http://www.postgresql.org/download/windows)?

 

Please read these:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/manage-ag-createdb.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/app-createdb.html

it's not clear what is wrong there, but try this:

1. Add this line to the beginning of your pg_hba.conf:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust

2. restart postgresql server.

3. you should be able to connect without password.


Please post such basic questions to pgsql-general mailing list.

You should REALLY read some manual pages, especially these:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/reference-client.html


good luck!
