Common Errors You May Encounter

Error: password authentication failed for user "postgres"

This error is related to the user password you set for your own local Postgres database.

Solution:

In the server-starter-code/database/utils/configDB.js file, replace the dBpwd value with your password for Postgres database.

  const dbName = 'starter-server';
  const dbUser = 'postgres';
  const dbPwd = '<your password>';
