Hi,

I have a strange problem running Django on a GrokThis.net shared
hosting account:

Environment:
------------------------------------------------------
Apache/2.0.59 (Unix)
mod_fastcgi/2.4.2
PostgreSQL 8.1.3
------------------------------------------------------


settings.py:
------------------------------------------------------
DATABASE_ENGINE = 'postgresql'
DATABASE_USER = 'user_name'
DATABASE_PASSWORD = '***'
------------------------------------------------------
or
------------------------------------------------------
DATABASE_ENGINE = 'postgresql_psycopg2'
DATABASE_USER = 'user_name'
DATABASE_PASSWORD = '***'
------------------------------------------------------


Django on FastCgi renders this error:
------------------------------------------------------

  FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user "user_name"
------------------------------------------------------

'ident' means the username the service is running as has to be the same as the database username (read http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/auth-methods.html#AUTH-IDENT).

So service is running as user "X" - the database user has to be "X" as well.

That's the first thing to check.

Second - can you connect to postgres from a shell command line?
