Re: [ovirt-users] Slow booting host - restart loop

Hi Eli, I could not access the psql prompt, i tried with the credentials and values on /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.d/10-setup-database.conf. I tried interactively and also with a .pgpass file containing: localhost:5432:engine:engine:PASSWORD And i get the following error: psql: FATAL: Peer authentication failed for user "engine" Thanks!
