我忘记或者在安装过程中输入了PostgreSQL默认用户的密码。我似乎不能运行它,我得到以下错误:

psql: FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "hisham"
hisham-agil: hisham$ psql

是否有方法重置密码或如何创建具有超级用户权限的新用户?

我是PostgreSQL的新手,只是第一次安装它。我正在尝试使用Ruby on Rails,我正在运行Mac OS X v10.7 (Lion)。

如果你在macOS上运行PostgreSQL,试试这些:

Edit the pg_hba.conf file sudo vi /Library/PostgreSQL/9.2/data/pg_hba.conf Change the "md5" method for all users to "trust" near the bottom of the file Find the name of the service ls /Library/LaunchDaemons Look for postgresql Stop the postgresql service sudo launchctl stop com.edb.launchd.postgresql-9.2 Start the postgresql service sudo launchctl start com.edb.launchd.postgresql-9.2 Start a psql session as postgres psql -U postgres (shouldn't ask for password because of 'trust' setting) Reset password in the psql session by typing: ALTER USER postgres with password 'secure-new-password'; \q Enter Edit the pg_hba.conf file Switch it back to 'md5' Restart services again

其他回答

我没能在C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\14\ data文件夹中找到pg_hba.conf文件,因为根本没有文件夹数据。

我通过使用pgAdmin创建一个新用户并赋予其超级系统管理员权限来解决这个问题。

当从命令行连接到PostgreSQL时,不要忘记添加-h localhost作为命令行参数。如果不是,PostgreSQL将尝试使用PEER认证模式进行连接。

下面显示了密码重置、使用PEER身份验证登录失败和使用TCP连接登录成功。

# sudo -u postgres psql

could not change directory to "/root"
psql (9.1.11)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=# \password
Enter new password:
Enter it again:
postgres=# \q

失败:

# psql -U postgres -W

Password for user postgres:
psql: FATAL:  Peer authentication failed for user "postgres"

使用-h localhost:

# psql -U postgres -W  -h localhost

Password for user postgres:
psql (9.1.11)
SSL connection (cipher: DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits: 256)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=#

如果你在Windows上,你可以直接运行

net user postgres postgres

并以postgres/postgres用户/密码登录PostgreSQL。

对于Windows(这对我很有帮助):

这就是我要参考的文档:如何重置PostgreSQL密码?

Open your cmd and go to C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\12\data. This is usually the right path. You might have it stored somewhere else. Note that, if you have a different PostgreSQL version, there will be a different number. That doesn't matter. Find a pg_hba.conf file and copy it to somewhere else (that way you will have an unmodified version of this file, so you will be able to look at it after we make some changes) Open the pg_hba.conf file (not the backup, but the original) Find the multiple lines that start with host near the bottom of the file: host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5 host all all ::1/128 md5 host replication all 127.0.0.1/32 md5 host replication all ::1/128 md5 Replace md5 with trust: host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust host all all ::1/128 trust host replication all 127.0.0.1/32 trust host replication all ::1/128 trust Close this file Go to your search bar on windows and open Services app. Find postgres and restart it. Picture of services app Write cd.. in cmd and then cd bin. Your path should be C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\12\bin Enter: psql -U postgres -h localhost Enter: ALTER USER postgres with password '<your new password>';Make sure that you include ; at the end “ALTER ROLE” should be displayed as an indication that the previous line was executed successfully Open original pg_hba.conf file and change back from trust to md5 Restart the server with Services app as before

注意:在Linux上,您可以简单地运行sudo su - postgres来成为postgres用户,然后使用psql更改所需的内容。
