  1. FW: Installation

    Martin Caverly <mcaverly@koboproductsinc.com> — 2015-03-09T16:35:12Z

    I am trying to install PostgresSQL 9.0.12 (stand-alone, fresh installation), but cannot pass the password screen. I have tried these passwords: root, Root, Superuser, superuser, postgres, Postgres, Postgressql, postgressql… none of them was accepted.
     Please kindly advise the default password for fresh installation.

    Please contact pgsql-general@postgresql.org<mailto:pgsql-general@postgresql.org> for help with PostgreSQL systems.
    You'll need to share what tool exactly you are using to install. We do not require passwords to install our software. It sounds like you might be using something that is not from http://www.postgresql.org

    First Postgres 9.0 will no longer be supported after September 2015:
    
    http://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning/
    
    so is there a reason you are using this version?
    
    Second, where did you get the installer?

    What are you installing on? (and as Adrian noted, why the old distribution on a fresh install?)
    
    On Debian for instance, the new Postgres user has no password. You need to do (as root):
    
    # su - postgres
    $ psql

    Thanks Vincent for your response. I had used the wrong set up program.
