|
|
Yea, about a week ago I had to do the manual install of postgres on my system due to it not initiallizing with the apache2triad setup correctly.
So to make a long story short, I some how managed to get it to install, without knowing what the root name is, and what the root password is.. fun huh? In the mean time prior to this post I have tryed several user/pass combinations from my system configurations from my system alone to the apache2traid settings.. and have come up with nothing..
So my final conclusion I think since I cant find a way to find out the user/pass for root. Is that I have to uninstall pgsql, then reinstall it correctly via the method used in a2t.. But I dont wanna risk my server currently. So. any help to get pgsql uninstalled then reinstalled with out comprimising my server currently would be great. I mean if it boils down to it ill back up all the files in the webserver directory for all the sites, the confs.. an so on and so forth.. but I would like to avoid it if possible
Thanks in advance for any support that can be given..

| my advice is to bite the bullet and backup and re-install A2T. That way the postgre will integrate nicely. |

| I am having a problem along the same lines. Can you tell me what files need to be backed up so I don't lose my DB? This is the first time needing to do this. :( |

You can do that or you can do it the easy way you can do this in one of 2 ways;
1) Delete the .htpasswd and .htdocs files out of your apache2triad folder.
OR
2) Or delete the contents of .htpasswd in the apache2triad folder and go to command prompt and type (i am using the path to my ap2t change it to yours):
htpasswd C:\apache2triad\htdocs\apache2triadcp\.htpasswd root
then you will be prompted for a new password put it in and there you go you have successfully changed the password |
