I'm trying to install Cubit which requires postgresql. But I keep getting this error: psql: FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "pguser"
when I type psql -U pguser I've googled on the error and made changes to pg_ident.conf and pg_hba.conf as suggested but I still get the error, even thought I restarted the service. I also followed this howto: HOWTO use the PostgreSQL server in few steps by Christian Belisle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> This file is included with the Mandrake PostgreSQL's packages. After you installed the packages, here is the procedure to start quickly but nicely. 1- Become root user on your machine. (su) 2- Become postgres user. (su postgres) 3- Create a user (createuser) 4- Be sure that the postmaster is running (service postgresql status) 5- Logout from the postgres and the root account. 6- Test it. (psql -U [username]) I'm actually surprised at how difficult this is to setup. Or more accurately, I'm surprised at how hard it is to get the info.
