Hi........

Firts, sorry with my English. I am from Galician Country.

My problem is :
 i have only one user( in my postgresql)  known as posgres.
# su postgres
#passwd *****

once , i am user postgres , i write : #psql mybd  and it does not ask me for
the BD'pasword ( postgres is like a user root)
The problem comes when i am  running a script php , where I try to connect to
my BD-----> $db=pg_connect("user=$user dbname=$dbname "). This refuse the
connection because  I dont have the password.!!!!!.

How can i get it??????????????????????



Thanks...................

What do the last dozen or so lines from $PGDATA/pg_hba.conf say?

What is the tcpip_socket set to in $PGDATA/postgresql.conf?

Can you connect if you give a bogus password?

You should create another user that has atleast read access to the
database...

The user "postgres" is kinda like the root user, so that user should not
be used.

Read here: http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/index.php?user-manag.html

Then u can use that user in your php scripts.
