Re: FATAL 1: Password authentication failed - Mailing list pgsql-interfaces

The issue was finally solved!  The culprit was a space in the properties
file after the password entry (i.e., 'test '), because of this
authentication failed.  Thanks very much for the support.

The PostgreSQL server releases are 7.2.1 and 7.2.3.

Did a download of the latest jdbc driver (pg73jdbc3.jar.zip) and got a
different error, which follows:

I recommend getting the newest jdbc driver from jdbc.postgresql.org.  It
should fix the problem.  What PostgreSQL server release are you using?
