[pgpool-general: 4028] No connection pooling + PostgreSQL auth + load balancing

[James Sewell]

Hello All,

Is this possible?

I would like:

   1. Authentication to be pushed back to Postgres (I use LDAP, so I can't
   use pool_passwd)
   2. SQL Load balancing across two Postgres servers

I'm happy to lose connection pooling as a consequence of this - but I still
can't seem to get this to work at all.

As soon as I enable the second node I get:

2015-09-03 11:47:31 ERROR: pid 8147: pool_get_passwd: username is NULL
psql.bin: FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "james"

I have:

connection_cache = false
load_balance_mode = true
master_slave_mode = false  # I have tried this with true and false
master_slave_sub_mode = 'stream'

backend_hostname0 = '192.168.3.190'
backend_port0 = 5432
backend_weight0 = 1
backend_data_directory0 = '/pg/9.4/data/pg_data'
backend_flag0 = ALLOW_TO_FAILOVER

backend_hostname1 = '192.168.3.191'
backend_port1 = 5432
backend_weight1 = 1
backend_data_directory1 = '/pg/9.4/data/pg_data'
backend_flag1 = ALLOW_TO_FAILOVER



Cheers,

James Sewell,
