I am using RStudio Version1.0.143 on a Windows 7 machine. R version 3.4.0 I am trying to connect to a postgreSQL database with the following command, but I receive an error message that says my password is incorrect. Since I saved my password in a file, I think I remember it.
I searched for a solution online, but cannot figure out what to do. If I have to change my password, please provide explicit instructions. > con <- DBI::dbConnect(RPostgreSQL::PostgreSQL(), + password = "sql1", + port = 5432, + dbname = "pg_dump-sfpg-2017-08-18" + ) Error in postgresqlNewConnection(drv, ...) : RS-DBI driver: (could not connect Ira@localhost:5432 on dbname "pg_dump-sfpg-2017-08-18": FATAL:password authentication failed for user "Ira" ) Thanks.
