The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 6412 Logged by: Andy Grimm Email address: agr...@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: 9.1.2 Operating system: Linux (Fedora) Description:
When psql prompts for a password, it only reads the first 100 characters of the password. The limit in fe-connect.c (for when .pgpass is used) is weirder, a seemingly arbitrary 320 bytes for all fields combined. Other (postgresql-jdbc, PyGreSQL, etc.) have no problem with a 512-byte password. It would be nice to have these limits controlled by a constant, and for the command to give an error or warning when a password is truncated. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
