[GRASS-user] FW: connecting to postgresql and postgis backend database - Grass 6.4.4svn

Hi,

I’m having some problems with password authentication when trying to connect to postgresql.

Here is the generated error:

(Fri Mar 21 10:25:16 2014)

g.remove vect=building@PERMANENT

Removing vector building@PERMANENT

DBMI-Postgres driver error:

Cannot connect to Postgres: FATAL: password authentication

failed for user “pshapley”

WARNING: Unable to open database by driver

WARNING: Unable open database by driver

WARNING: Unable to find table <npt_planning.building> linked to vector map

WARNING: couldn’t be removed

WARNING: nothing removed

(Fri Mar 21 10:25:17 2014) Command finished (0 sec)

Is this problem linked with Ticket #1274 because if i use ‘v.in.ogr’ (with the -t) option

it imports all the geometries without the attributes (not much use)?. When the import is finished

I am asked to ‘try to rebuild topologies with v.build’ but this does not work.

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks,

Paul Shapley
