Although a small point, specifying this could make life easier. :) Another thing I noticed is that when I followed this on my Windows 10, it asks for a password. My laptop is just a stand-alone, and isn't connected to any LAN. During the installation, the only password it asks for the postgres superuser. When I try entering that password, I get an error - createdb: could not connect to database template1: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "HP", where the name of my laptop is HP. To rectify this issue, I had to make a new user in the pgAdmin (at least, I initially used pgAdmin, but later realized that it could be done using SQL itself on the command prompt). I don't know any workaround for this issue, but maybe specifying that could be more helpful for beginners like me ;) ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 2+ messages in thread
