Re: alter user problem

You need to go:

ALTER USER "EDU" WITH PASSWORD 'aaaa';

Since you have used an uppercase name, you will always need to double quote
it.

Subject: [HACKERS] alter user problem

Hi all

I have install Postgresql 7.3 with user name EDU.
then I enter the psql to change the password for EDU using "alter user EDU
with password 'aaaa''
it returns " user EDU do not exist".
I check the system table pg_user, and the user 'EDU' actually exists.
But if I take the following SQL, it works
"create user TEST'
"Alter user TEST with password 'dddd';
I check the pg_user again, and find the user "TEST' is replace by 'test'.
So I have a question:
How I change the password for the initial user "EDU", or is it a bug for
postgresql 7.3?
Great thanks for any message
Josh.
