I have a 32-bit DB2 ODBC DSN created with the user name and password saved. But when I try to connect to the DB I have to enter the user name and password again. Is there any way I can bypass the authentication? I have the user name and password saved in db2cli.ini file.
db2 CLP is not a cli application. You can't make it use these UID and PWD cli parameters.

I can't connect on postgresql.
when i go on pgadmin>server>postgresql, it asked me "please enter the password for the user 'postgres' to connect the server?
I have windows 10 and postgresql 14.
But I don't have this password.
What can I do?
The following worked for me.
Change METHOD of all rows in your pg_hba.conf file from scram-sha-256 to trust (C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\14\data\pg_hba.conf). This will disable password for your DB.
Click on any database in postgresql to use Query Tool.
In Query Tool type ALTER USER postgres WITH PASSWORD 'User_password';
postgres is default username, execute it.
This way you can set up a password for your DB, after that go back to the first step and change it back from trust to scram-sha-256.
When I try anything in isql, I get the message:
Your user name and password are not defined. Ask your database
administrator to set up a Firebird login.
unable to open database
When I try to create the user I still get the message:
C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_3_0>gsec -user sysdba -password masterkey
use gsec -? to get help
Your user name and password are not defined. Ask your database administrator to set up a Firebird login.
unable to open database
But I am the administrator, and I installed it.
How do I create the user SYSDBA in Firebird?
The combination of the "Your user name and password are not defined. Ask your database administrator to set up a Firebird login." with "unable to open database" does not mean the SYSDBA account does not exist, it means that the Firebird process was unable to open the security database to perform authentication.
This can happen if you installed Firebird in C:\Program Files, and you are running the Firebird server as an application (instead of as a service) and UAC is enabled, or you are running as a service, but the user account running the service has insufficient rights to read and write to the security3.fdb file.
You either need to run Firebird as a service (e.g. as configured by the installer), or - if you really want to run Firebird as an application - install Firebird outside of C:\Program Files.
How do I create the user SYSDBA in Firebird?
Connect to any database (security.db or employee) in embedded mode using user name SYSDBA (password is not needed in this mode) and issue SQL command "CREATE USER" as described in Firebird Language Reference.
You can learn more about embedded mode from Firebird 3.0 Release Notes.
I compiled Postgresql 9.5.3 and then installed it (Windows). I called initdb, then started the server. It created a user with name of the Windows user. It allows login without or with incorrect password. How to specify a password? ALTER USER test WITH PASSWORD 'x'; does not work.
When I have create a DB using PGAdmin it creates the db under administrator as the user. then again I created a DB using Openerp frontend it creates the db under openerp as the user.
I only need one user wich both parties can access. How to do so ? when ever I tried to connect as openerp it asks for password which I didn't have. Please help me with this
You can check the configuration file of your Odoo, and inside it you will see a parameter named db_user (it will have openerp as its value). Its password will be set in db_password parameter. There you can know the password of the user openerp or even you will be able to modify both user and password to whatever you want.
I am using win Vista, and I am trying to backup some Database under DB2.
I am logged in using the Administrator user, and whenever I try to issue the backup command in the "command line processor", I get the following message:
SQL1092N "ADMINISTRATOR" does not have the authority to perform the requested command. SQLSTATE=00000
BTW, I have created a username/password pair (db2admin) while installing the DB2 server.
So, Will this problem will be get solved if I use the db2admin user? And how to connect to the server (local server BTW) using the db2admin user ?
I had this problem recently and this seemed to do the job:
Attach to your [local] node. (the value of your DB2INSTANCE environ variable, mine was 'DB2'):
attach to DB2 user db2admin using mypassword;
If this isn't enough (it didn't seem to be with me), you can also specify the user and password with backup and restore commands:
restore database mydbname user db2admin using mypassword from C:\BACKUPS taken at 20100823132457;
Or manually create the db2admin user with a password on Windows. But I'm not sure if that's the correct option here.
