Issue 1
When I am trying to create Postgre DB using Cpanel, I get the following error:
Error from postgres wrapper: PostgreSQL has not been configured by the administrator. Unable to locate pgpass file.
Fix 1
You need to install a Postgres authentication configuration file that uses md5 passwords which works with cPanel. You can do this through WHM.
Login to WHM >> SQL Services >> Postgres Config >> Click on “Install Config”.
Issue 2
Okie now I can create databases with new accounts. But already created accounts have issues. It says database created but it actually not creates and shows the following error in cPanel logs
tail -f /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log
ERROR: role “username” does not exist
ERROR: role “username” does not exist
Fix 2
Login to the server as “root” and execute the following command.
cd /var/cpanel/users && for x in *; do su -c “createuser -S -D -R $x” postgres; done
