I am having difficulty connecting to the postgres server from Racket. It asks for a password, but role and authentication is set up so that the logged in local user does not need one.
Is `psql` is using a Unix domain socket to talk to PG, `postgresql-connect` is using a `localhost` TCP port to PG, and your `/etc/postgresql/*/main/pg_hba.conf` is configured to have different authentication for the two different methods?
If so, try either adding `#:socket 'guess` to your `postgresql-connect` call, or modifying your `pg_hba.conf` (and restarting PG).
If that's not quite it, try also adding `#:ssl 'yes` to `postgresql-connect`, or modifying `pg_hba.conf` again.
If that's not it, check for PG environment variables that `psql` could be using. Also, you can test the different methods by supplying different `conninfo` strings on the `psql` command line.
