Hello to all,
This is my first question, so don't be mad if it is gonna be a silly one.

I have a psql account on a psql server that runs psql 7.2.1. I want to
connect to it by using java (jdbc).

I downloaded the JDBC 2.0 driver (pgjdbc2.jar) and I am doing the following:

System.out.println(" + Loading the driver" );
Class.forName( "org.postgresql.Driver" ) ;

System.out.println(" + Creating a connection " );
con = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:postgresql://myserver:5432/Test",
"myaccount",
"mypasswd" ) ;

Loading the driver works. But can't obtain a connection due to:

Exception: Something unusual has occured to cause the driver to fail. Please
report this exception: Exception: java.sql.SQLException: FATAL 1: Password
authentication failed for user "dovle"

Stack Trace:

java.sql.SQLException: FATAL 1: Password authentication failed for user
"myaccount"

at org.postgresql.Connection.openConnection(Connection.java:178)
at org.postgresql.Driver.connect(Driver.java:149)
at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:512)
at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:171)
at Main.main(Main.java:18)
End of Stack Trace

But the password is correct!!!

What could be wrong ?

What should happen if the postgres does not run with the -i parameter ? Could
this be the wrong thing that happened ?
