Обсуждение: postgres password change
Dear all -
I forgot the password for the postgres user for the database. Is there way I can reset the password to whatever I want. When I do the psql -U postgres , it's prompting me the password. Can you please help?
Regards

if you know the root password
#su root
#su postgres
#psql
#alter role <username> with password <password>
it think that should do
#su root
#su postgres
#psql
#alter role <username> with password <password>
it think that should do
