Hi,

You can use below command to get the desired output.

echo localhost:5432:postgres:postgres:7Ug^\>uAks!{VA > %PGPASSFILE%
                                                 or
echo "localhost:5432:postgres:postgres:7Ug^>uAks!{VA" > %PGPASSFILE%

Hi,

 

i want to modiy the adatabse via batch script. The user has a password that contains symbols like that “g>uAks!”. The problem here is the “greater than”-symbol.

 

call set PGPASSFILE=%TEMP%\pgpass.conf

echo localhost:5432:postgres:postgres:7Ug^>uAks!{VA > %PGPASSFILE%

 

"C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\10\bin\psql" -U postgres

 

psql will always fail with FATAL: User-Athentification failed. The password was read from ..\Local\Temp\pgpass.conf

 

 

 

 

If I set a Enviromentvariable and “echo” it, it will not work, because of the >-symbol.

 

 

C:\Users\hschenk>set PGPASSWORD=lalal>lala

 

C:\Users\hschenk>echo %PGPASSWORD%

Lalal

 

How can I use this with a password like this?
