Thanks ^^
I tested same thing for OS user 'root' (/root), 'postgres' (/var/lib/pgsql
), and other two normal users who has home directory in /home.
But I got same error.
---- [ pgagent_96.log ]
WARNING: Couldn't create the primary connection (attempt 10): fe_sendauth:
no password supplied
ERROR: Stopping pgAgent: Couldn't establish the primary connection with the
database server.
