Re: authentication fail

May I suggest you to use dockerized pgAdmin?

Looks like you are running pgAdmin 4 version 4.1 and the latest version
is 4.30. Please upgrade the pgAdmin to the latest and your issue will be
resolved.

Seems that I must be VERY patient. I am working with opensuse Leap 15.2.
The version of paAdmin4 which comes with the distro is this version
(4.1). Even the rolling release distro (Tumbleweed) only offers the
version 4.29.
At:
https://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/pgadmin/pgadmin4
I found the rpm-Package für Red Hat and Fedora. Do you have any
information if this works on opensuse too?

Thanks in advance,
Michael

Thanks,

Hi there,

I am using postgresql 12 on Linux opensuse Leap 15.2.
In 'former times' with my postgresql-db I used pgadmin3. It
was nice and
tiny, and I was happy.
Now, with pgadmin4 I am not able to connect to my server.
There is no
problem with pgsql nor with knoda even from another computer
but with
pgadmin4 I always get an authentication error. In pg_hba.conf
I changed
all connections to 'trust' - but no way!
Is there a verbose-mode for pgadmin4 in order to see what is
happening?

It should work with pgAdmin as you have no problem with psql.
You can enable logging to check the issue, please
refer https://www.pgadmin.org/faq/#8
<https://www.pgadmin.org/faq/#8> <https://www.pgadmin.org/faq/#8
<https://www.pgadmin.org/faq/#8>> to
enable it.
Also, you can provide the screen-shot of the error you are getting, so
we can help you.

Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Michael

By the way: Is there a way to get rid of this annoying nag screen
telling me every time I start pgadmin that there is a new
version? My
version came with the distro

You can disable the version check by setting UPGRADE_CHECK_ENABLED
parameter to False,
refer https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/4.29/config_py.html
<https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/4.29/config_py.html>
<https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/4.29/config_py.html
<https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/4.29/config_py.html>> for
the. same.

Thanks for the hints and sorry for the delay. Here is what I did after
having deleted everything related to pgadmin in my user directory:
First I created the file config_local.py<http://local.py> following the advice at
https://www.pgadmin.org/faq/#8 <https://www.pgadmin.org/faq/#8>
Then I started pgAdmin4 on a console. During the start I get this
message:
--- snip ---

"/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages:/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages"

(don't know if this is ok...)

The browser window with pgAdmin4 opened. In order to see what happened
please revise the attached pdf. As you will see, my trial ended up with
... nothing.

Looking through the pgAdmin4.startup.log (attached) I didn't find
nothing special - this seems ok but I must confess that don't know how
to interprete the messages in pgadmin4.log (attached) and if there is
any hint in order to see what went wrong.

I would appreciate any help in order to get pgAdmin4 working.

Best regards,
Michael

P.S.: The authentication configuring in pg_hba.conf:

# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
local all all trust
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32<http://127.0.0.1/32> <http://127.0.0.1/32>
md5
host all username xxx.xxx<http://xxx.xxx>.xx.0/24 trust

(the last line I introduced so that my normal user can access the
database remotely from different machines in my local network.)
