FATAL: password authentication failed for user "engine"
I am able to log in to the database with the engine user credentials.
[root@ovirt1 engine.conf.d]# psql -h localhost -U engine -d engine
Password for user engine:
psql (13.7)
Type "help" for help.
engine=> \q
Question: Is the engine-setup possibly trying to run with no password??
