Rails postgres no password supplied

Posted on February 24, 2017

Hi,

I’ve recently installed a one-click application, and everything is working fine(managed to create, and migrate the database). But when I launched the rails c, all goes well till I try to perform an action, I then receive the error code;

PG::ConnectionBad: fe_sendauth: no password supplied

Thank you.

Don’t know much about Rails, but doing a search for the error returns many answers, which all leads to a little mis-configuration (both in the Rails configuration and if you’re connection through TCP or socket): http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13690162/rails-postgres-fe-sendauth-no-password-supplied http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23375740/pgconnectionbad-fe-sendauth-no-password-supplied
