Filipe,

You need to create that file yourself.  Using the format you found in the
documentation, you can put your login information in the .pgpass file in
the user's home directory, or under windows it's under
"%APPDATA%\postgresql\pgpass.conf (where %APPDATA% refers to the
Application Data subdirectory in the user's profile)." [1]

Hope that helps!


Cheers,

I already had done this but it seems the "Store password" function stores
the password in a file other than the pgpass.conf because it really stores
passwords with or without that file.

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to set the "Store password" option in a
file? Because if it isn't possible I should give up to look for the way the
passwords are stored...
