[GENERAL] Ubuntu installed postgresql password failure

[Dale Seaburg]

I have reached my wit's end.  lol  I installed postgresql (9.3.9) and 
pgadmin3 with the Ubuntu Software Center.  When using pgadmin or psql, I 
get an error "password authentication failed for user "postgres" ".  
Ubuntu (14.04.3).


I created a postgres user BEFORE installing postgresql/pgadmin toolset.  
The password I used for the postgres user will not work with the 
installed postgresql tools.


What in the world am I doing wrong, and more importantly, how do I 
determine the password used for postgres during the postgresql install?  
AND, why should it be different from the postgres user I created.


Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Dale

[GENERAL] Paradox to postgresql interface

[Dale Seaburg]

Has anyone had any experience with writing an interface between Paradox 
(199X's vintage) and postgresql.  I have the need to be able to read a 
paradox database to see it's structure, replicate that structure in 
postgresql and finally transfer the data to postgresql.


I have not done any searches of the various lists archives yet for a 
possible solution.


Dale.
