Subject: [GENERAL] Can't access to database from webapp in PostgreSQL 9.0, from shell it is Ok.

With the method above I have no problems in enter "psql" but when I try to connect with the user created with these method to a webapp I got an error:

[code]
Exception Value:
FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user "mypoatgreuser"
[/code]

There is more permissions that I must to give to the user "mypoatgreuser"? What could be wrong here?

Andre,

The information you have supplied is inadequate but I am concerned that you may just have a simple typo in your webapp configuration:

"mypoatgreuser" => "mypostgreuser"; note the "a" should be an "s"

Also, it is considered proper for the shortened form of PostgreSQL to include the trailing "s" (Postgres) as opposed to simply "Postgre"; might as well get used to that before you go naming everything you come across "postgre" :)
