Im new to postgres and im trying to connect to a postgres database through php. This is the error:

Warning: pg_connect() [function.pg-connect]: Unable to connect to PostgreSQL server: FATAL: role "apache" does not exist in /var/

you are trying to connect without entering any username or password, and thus it tries to authenticate the apache user, which has no account
