Dear PG Admin
I downloaded Win AllinOne and seperate Client/Server/Postgre installation.
Tried Allin in one on a clean PC, but still can't get things going.
On the clean PC everytime, when entering "createuser.exe --createdb --username
postgres --no-createrole --pwprompt openuser" systems accepts passwords, "y" to
superuser and then at password it get stuck. Error: "Could not connect to database postgres:
FATAL: password authentication failed for user 'postgres'.
It's not the password i entered; i don't have this password. Could you supply it / provide
a workaround?
Thank you
Andre
