I gave Postgre a password during install. However, it always rejects it. I tried uninstalling, deleting all files, and reinstalling. Same thing. It complains about user "roedy" (my windows id). It seems to me the default user is supposed to be postgres not Roedy. Perhaps that is the source of the problem. I can't find anything relevant in the docs. The docs talk about installing on Unix by compiling C source. I have Windows 7 64 bit. I get the feeling Windows users are unwelcome. -- Roedy Green Canadian Mind Products http://mindprod.com Refactor early.
