I am having a problem connecting my postgres database. I created a user for him (he never asked me for a password), so I created the ALTER USER user_name WITH PASSWORD password command to create it. I set the user and password in my database.yml file in my configuration directory for my Rails project. He still tells me that I have an authentication error (like my header), and I have no idea why. I modified my pg_hba.conf file from this answer from this link . The only thing I can think of would solve this problem is to make my user superuser. But I would like to know why this is not working right now, without making it superuser. Does anyone have an idea?
