Authentication process #15

Closed mageru closed 10 years ago

mageru commented 10 years ago

Need information on how too get into the site once it is up.

Is there a default user and pass? Is instead backed by Postgresql? For me with is failing using PoWA Postgresql account.

You can login as any postgres superuser, but PoWA won't create a new one when the extension is created. Ovbiously, the server running the GUI should have an entry in pg_hba.conf allowing the wanted superuser(s).

I will add some documentation about all these requirements soon.

If you're using morbo, you can check it's output (or "log" subdirectory if you created one) for authentication failure extra information. Apache or any other http daemon will also give information where you configured error logs.

Documentation updated in commit 30befbb061bc09585c73f342c2074af93604747d.

Maybe you should add "postgres" as the default username in the html form.

Confirmed. Works great now. Thanks for the help and protips rjuju
