[Phplib-users] postgresql authentication fail

[GSO <gs...@em...>]

Hi,

Have been trying to get past the following error for a few days now:

Warning: Unable to connect to PostgresSQL server: FATAL 1: IDENT 
authentication failed for user "www-data" in
/usr/lib/phplib/db_pgsql.inc on line 48
Database error: Link-ID == false, connect failed
Session halted.

PHP 3.0.18, PHPlib 7.2, psotgresql 7.2.1, apache 1.3.26.  CGI scripts 
run fine (accept from home directories where the default 
Debian/Adamantix Apache configuration limits user directories to read 
only).  phpinfo() reports the postgresql interface fine.  I am someone 
who is more at home typing SQL in so would appreciate any help at all 
on this one.

Thanks in advance,

GSO
