I used the wrong method to enter license keys, and I want to remove them and enter them again in the licensing section of the Web Client. I am using the VCSA, and am at version 6, update 1.
I try going through the steps at http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2054008, and get an error when I try step 2:
vcsa-hostname:/opt/vmware/vpostgres/current/bin # ./psql -d VCDB -U vc
Password for user vc:
psql.bin: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "vc"
vcsa-hostname:/opt/vmware/vpostgres/current/bin # pwd
/opt/vmware/vpostgres/current/bin
I am typing in the value in the .cfg file:
vcsa-hostname:/opt/vmware/vpostgres/9.3/bin # grep -i pass /etc/vmware-vpx/embedded_db.cfg:
PGUSER_PASSWORD='value-is-removed'
I get the following when I try without a password:
vcsa-hostname:/opt/vmware/vpostgres/current/bin # ./psql -d VCDB
Password:
psql.bin: fe_sendauth: no password supplied
When I try the same thing and enter the password in PGUSER_PASSWORD, I get:
vcsa-hostname:/opt/vmware/vpostgres/current/bin # ./psql -d VCDB
Password:
psql.bin: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "root"
Any thoughts on what I’m missing?
