Django-PostgreSQL Connection Issue Debugging

Job ID: 38958283

Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR

I'm facing a connection issue with my Django application and PostgreSQL. After changing my .env file configuration, I'm receiving an error: "django.db.utils.OperationalError: connection to server at "localhost" (::1), port 5432 failed: FATAL: password authentication failed for user".

Here are the specifics:
- I've confirmed that the credentials in the .env file are correct, as I can connect through pgAdmin and Django without issue.
- The problem began after I modified my .env file.

What I need: A freelancer with extensive Django and PostgreSQL experience to help debug this connection issue. Ideally, you should be familiar with .env file configurations and Django's environment variable handling. Your task will be to identify and rectify the issue, ensuring my application can connect to the database without further errors.
