Re: pg_dump Error in Windows

It seems the the local level entry are missed in pg_hba.conf file your
entry must like below...

# TYPE DATABASE USER ADDRESS METHOD
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
*local all all peer*
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
# IPv6 local connections:
host all all ::1/128 md5
