I am using PostgreSQL 9.0. It is installed on Windows XP. I am trying
to take a backup of the database using pg_dump. But each time I give a
command
Pg_dump pgdb > backup.sql
I am prompted for a password and I provided the database password.
After this, I got an error as follows..
pg_dump: [archiver (db)] connection to database “pgdb” failed : FATAL:
password authentication failed for user “windows user_name”.
add -U dbusername to the command line.
