Thread: pg 8.0b2, psql problem
I do not seem to be able to get into psql after installing. I am unable to authenticate for user ‘postgres.’ I am using the password I created upon installation. Using Windows XP Professional. Any help (I know I’m overlooking something very obvious) would be greatly appreciated.

A clean install fixed it. Don’t ask me what was different the second time around. Thanks for the help.
