James Harris Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Hi, I just created a database but cannot log in to it using PhpPgAdmin. Every time I try to start PhpPgAdmin it says "Login failed". I've even tried deleting the database and just accessing PhpPgAdmin but I still get the same error message. PhpMyAdmin seems fine. Is there a problem with Postgresql or with PhpPgAdmin or do I have to do something special? James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xaav Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 The problem is with phpPgAdmin, as all other PHP scripts seem to work fine. There isn't really much we can do here without messing with the source of phpPgAdmin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't really much we can do here without messing with the source of phpPgAdmin. Understood. Sounds like PhpPgAdmin isn't working for anyone. Maybe a reinstall? Given the situation is there another way users can edit Postgres tables? For myself I guess I could write some PHP pages to allow me to edit but that seems a lot of work. Is there an easier way such as remote access to the PHP database from a remote PC? James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jje Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 A reinstall would not be easy, as I think it is included within cPanel itself and very hard to modify correctly. This issue is known, but has not been resolved. Hmmm... this is an interesting idea for HelioPanel...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xaav Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I've enabled remote connection to our databases, so you should be able to use pgAdmin 1.14. to admin your databases. We may eventually include this in HelioPanel, so you won't have to do this anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After some searching I found http://www.helionet.org/index/index.php?sh...mote+postgresql which gives instructions. I've set phpPgAdmin up and it does contact stevie but I get exactly the same message: Login failed. Is it possible the problem is not with phpPgAdmin? I've even tried resetting all my passwords on stevie through cpanel but I still get Login failed when trying to access Postgres either through cpanel or remotely. James I've enabled remote connection to our databases, so you should be able to use pgAdmin 1.14. to admin your databases.
