I've got into strange issue, where I try to connect with specific user, using password via psql
, but if I copy/paste password, it gives me this error:
Password for user myuser:
psql: error: connection to server at "my-host" (192.168.1.154), port 5432 failed: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "myuser"
I try to connect this way:
psql -U myuser -h myhost mydb
If I manually type password (without copy/pasting), I can connect without any issues:
Password for user myuser:
psql (15.3 (Ubuntu 15.3-1.pgdg20.04+1), server 13.12 (Debian 13.12-1.pgdg120+1))
Type "help" for help.
mydb=> \q
Don't understand why simple copy does not work properly anymore for psql
.
P.S. I use ubuntu 20.04 on my PC
After restarting Ubuntu and installing all pending updates, password copying started working.
