Hi there,
(I'm new to CL & postmodern, so forgive me in advance.)
I tried to use postmodern, but I kept getting: password authentication failed for user "foobar"
as error, and I do know that my credentials are ok.
Specifying the password as nil in `connect' made me discover that MD5 was used to authenticate. Then, changing 'md5' to 'password' in pg_hba.conf allowed me to connect using postmodern!
It seems that the MD5 auth scheme is broken somehow in postmodern, or that I miss something. I'm using PostgreSQL 9.2 FWIW.
Hint?
See https://github.com/marijnh/Postmodern/issues/27 - the md5 library changed. The next update of Quicklisp will include the Postmodern update.
In the meantime, you could do something like this to get the update early:
cd ~/quicklisp/local-projects git clone git://github.com/marijnh/Postmodern.git
That local checkout will override Quicklisp's version of Postmodern.
