Re: <bug>: save new user details

[Karsten Hilbert]

Dear Holly,

thanks for taking the time to report this issue.

You are running on Debian/Stable,

> lsb_release: {'RELEASE': '10', 'CODENAME': 'buster', 'DESCRIPTION': 'Debian 
> GNU/Linux 10 (buster)', 'ID': 'Debian'}

on which the latest 1.7 release is 1.7.5

        gnumed-client | 1.4.12+dfsg-1 | oldoldstable | source, all
        gnumed-client | 1.6.11+dfsg-3 | oldstable    | source, all
        gnumed-client | 1.7.5+dfsg-3  | stable       | source, all
        gnumed-client | 1.8.4+dfsg-1  | testing      | source, all
        gnumed-client | 1.8.4+dfsg-1  | unstable     | source, all

which is what you have installed.

On the 1.7 branch there is four more bugfix releases, so the
latest is 1.7.9

        https://www.gnumed.de/downloads/client/1.7/

which you might consider installing.

If all else fails there's at a 1.7.6 on Ubuntu eoan:

        https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnumed-client/1.7.6+dfsg-1

Moreover, if you intend to more fully use GNUmed I would
strongly suggest going for the 1.8 (Python3) series as that
is where all the future work (will/has to) happen.

As to your issue:

it seems that you might simply not have used the matching password:

Can you verify that you know that proper password for
connecting as gm-dbo ?

Can you connect using psql, such as

        $> psql -d gnumed_v22 -U gm-dbo -h 127.0.0.1

You can also try something like pgadmin to test the password.

Does it work if you start GNUmed connecting to the database
with the profile

        [GNUmed database on this machine ("local": Linux/Mac)]

rather than

        [GNUmed database on this machine ("TCP/IP": Windows/Linux/Mac)]

?  Success may depend on what you pg_hba.conf file says.
