Hi Nabil,
First, I suggest using the latest version of phpPgAdmin: 4.0.
Second, your configuration seems ok, but you need to turn on logging in
your PostgreSQL to see the exact error that you're getting.

Hello, I know it's a mailing list dedicated to postgresql but, after a
long research on the web, I found nothing good. I've got some problem
phppgadmin 3.5.2 (running with postgresql 8.0 on debian sarge). I can
connect to the database with psql and pgadmin III but when I use
phppgadmin I get "login failed".
