Rails can't login to postgresql - PG::Error - password - Correct info

Question

This is how my database.yml file looks (obviously there are relevant entries for testing and production as well)

development:
  adapter: postgresql
  encodin         


        

Answer 1

Database.yml:

connection: &connection
  adapter: postgresql
  encoding: unicode
  pool: 5
  username: username
  password: tehpass

development:
  <<: *connection
  database: dbname_development

test:
  <<: *connection
  database: dbname_test

production:
  <<: *connection
  database: dbname_production

If this is not working for you then, there might be something wrong during installation.

ERROR CASE:

e_sendauth: no password supplied 

fe_sendauth: no password supplied

This happens under a stock Ubuntu install, and is due to the permissions in pg_hba.conf being too restrictive by default. To allow rails to connect, simply change the bottom of pg_hba.conf to look like this.

# TYPE  DATABASE    USER        CIDR-ADDRESS          METHOD

# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
local   all         all                               trust
# IPv4 local connections:
host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          trust
# IPv6 local connections:
host    all         all         ::1/128               trust
