Hi Jeff,
You cuaght me with a fine point.
but I didn't see HOME being exported.
I have changed the script accordingly:
And the result/my claim remains the same as before:
pg_dumpall: could not connect to database "template1": fe_sendauth: no password supplied
I see just one more option. Namely, to change the
postgres user entry for pg_hba.conf to "trust" for
a short period as pg_dumpall starts and then put it
back to the way normally is (md5). I would rather
not do that and get .pgpass or PGPASSFILE to work
for me.
I didn't really expect that to make a difference. What does your .pgpass look
like? What OS user are you running the cron job as? Do you have SELINUX
enabled? Can you run the script with the strace command I sent in a previous
email so that we can see what's really going on?
