Cause
The JDBC client login uses 'Ident-based authentication' method instead of 'password authentication' mode.
Resolution
By default PostgreSQL uses IDENT-based authentication and this will never allow you to login via -U and -W options. Allow username and password based authentication from your application by appling 'trust' as the authentication method for the JIRA database user. You can do this by modifying the pg_hba.conf
file. This file controls:
- Which hosts are allowed to connect
- How clients are authenticated
- Which PostgreSQL user names they can use
- Which databases they can access
For example:
local all all trust host all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
Don't forget to restart PostgreSQL after saving your changes to the file.
# service postgresql restart
