Hi Frank,

I've set up PostgreSQL 9.03 on my FreeBSD 8.1 box. I've edited
pg_hba.conf to use password authentication for everything. I've then
set up a RefDB database according to

http://refdb.sourceforge.net/manual/ch04s08.html#sect2-manual-setup

I've used manual setup as I've already installed RefDB with MySQL as a
backend. Next I've added myself as a user. The only problem that I
encountered is that I cannot connect to PostgreSQL unless I provide a
password with the refdba adduser command, but this is expected. After
adding the user properly, I was able to use RefDB without any
problems.

Now if that procedure does not work on your box, we'll have to figure
out other potential problems. I've checked the PostgreSQL release
notes. There should not be any changes from 9.03 to 9.04 that pertain
to access problems.

To get an idea of what else may be the culprit, could you please
provide some more system information. Please run the following
command:

refdb-bug

This will create the file refdb-bug.txt in your current working
directory. Please append that file to your response.

I'd also like to know which versions of libdbi and libdbi-drivers you
are using. If you built libdbi-drivers from the sources, then please
run make check from the top-level directory of the libdbi-drivers
sources and follow the instructions (if any) to run a test on pgsql.

best regards,
Markus
