    Hello, I have two very simple questions: 1) I have an account at postgresql.org, but a link to a 'forgot password' seems to be missing on the login page. I have my password stored only on an old Fedora 32 computer. To change the password when logged in, you need to supply the old password. In short, I have no way to migrate this postgresql.org account to my new Fedora 35 and Fedora 36 computers. What can be done about this? 2) I have three psql clients running, a version 12.6, a version 13.4 and a version 14.3. Until now a 'select * from table;' showed the output in 'less' or something alike and exited from 'less' when the output was complete. Both version 12.6 and version 13.4 work that way. Version 14.3 does not exit from 'less' when the output is complete. Did anyone notice this already? Best regards, Mischa Baars.

In short, I have no way to migrate this postgresql.org account to my new Fedora 35 and Fedora 36 computers. What can be done about this? It say this: | If you have a postgresql.org community account with a password, please use the form below to sign in. If you have one but have lost your password, you can use the password reset form. (BTW, the development list isn't the right place; pgsql-www is better). > 2) I have three psql clients running, a version 12.6, a version 13.4 and a version 14.3.

Version 14.3 does not exit from 'less' when the output is complete. Did anyone notice this already? Is it actually running less or some other pager ? Do you have all 3 versions of psql installed and the same (different) behavior happening today ? How was postgres installed ? Compiled locally or from which packages ? Please show pg_config for each. Could you check how the pager is being run ? Check the commandline in ps -fC less or similar, and the environment in "cat /proc/PID/environ" or "ps wwe -C less" -- Justin
