  • Thank you for enlightening me on the -W option in psql. I have successfully logged in using the expected password for lemmy. This points to something with the connection string. According to the error log, the connection string being used is:

    postgres://lemmy:<my percent-encoded password>@postgres:5432/lemmy
    

    As far as I can tell, the percent encoding is correct. Any ideas how to troubleshoot this further?

    edit: it just occurred to me that my container name is lemmy_postgres_1, not postgres as was entered in my lemmy.hjson file. Let’s see if changing that will work…

    edit2: no, that had no effect. I’m getting the authentication error for user lemmy on both the lemmy container and the postgres container. :(
