Re: new install, can't use - need password for postgres user

Thanks though it appears it is all my fault. I did indeed set up a password at install, and it was windows security policy that forced me to use something I normally wouldn't, hence the reason I forgot it. I can see how your solution below would work, but I suspect at some point, it will be better to know what that password is.

So, after a reinstall, I am up and running. Thanks for everything.

Cheers,

Doug
