I'm writing a shell script to run analyze and other jobs as use postgres, having issues passing the passwd in psql is always asking for password, I'm using .pgpass file as argument in psql ( I understood PGPASS is depreciated). My .pgpass file contains only the passwd string not the full connection string9 hostname, port etc) since this is local connection , but is always asking for passwd, using :PG ver 8.3, RH 5,
The script contains something like :
Home=
PSQL=
PGDATA=
export HOME, PSQL, PGDATA etc
(cat $HOME/.pgpass
cat << EOF
REINDEX database test
;
EOF
) | $PSQL -U postgres -d test  > /var/lib/pgsql//reindex.log

thank you
Isabella
