Why Did the New Password Not Take Effect After I Reset the Password of My RDS for PostgreSQL Instance?
Possible Causes
You may have restored from a backup that was created before you reset the administrator password, which overwrites the new password with the old one.
Locating Method
Check whether the DB instance was restored after you reset the administrator password.
Solution
Log in to the RDS console and reset the administrator password again. For details, see Resetting the Administrator Password.
