Thread: SSL problem
Hi, I am trying to start the postmaster with SSL support. -l option is used to start the postmaster to start with ssl support.when I am trying to start with -l option, it searches for server.crt and server.key file. I have bothe files in data directory. but each time when I am trying to start the postmaster with -l option, I am getting following error Failed to load private key file (data/server.key): problems getting password Can anybody please help me in this? Please help ASAP. Thanks in advance. Namrata.

(If you're using pg_ctl to start the server this is probably the case.) -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net http://funkturm.homeip.net/~peter
