Starting pgAdmin III with stored passwords asks for password again

Question

Starting pgAdmin III on kubuntu with stored password asks for password every time connecting to database giving error "Error connecting to the server: fe_sendauth: no password supplied". It ignores checkbox in store password field.

Answer 1

I found reason for this in Postgresql mailing lists. Problem is when file /home/user/.pgpass has permisions more than u=rw 0600 pgAdmin ignores the file. Changing permisions for file resolves problem.
