[Spacewalk-list] Problem populating the database

Hello,
I'm attempting to do a fresh install of Spacewalk 1.7 on a CentOS 5.8 box.

I have installed postgresql 8.4 and the contrib.

I have straighten out the user, auth and the permissions for the user, also
I have installed the 'plpgsql' languate on the DB engine.
It starts populating but at some point I get stuck with:
** Database: Populating database.
*** Progress: ######################
Could not populate database.


Now the log of the DB is a bit:

WARNING:  there is no transaction in progress
ERROR:  could not establish connection
DETAIL:  fe_sendauth: no password supplied

CONTEXT:  SQL statement "SELECT  dblink_connect('at_conn', 'dbname=' ||
current_database())"
        PL/pgSQL function "pg_dblink_exec" line 2 at PERFORM
        SQL statement "SELECT  pg_dblink_exec( 'insert into
rhnPackageName(id, name) values (' ||  $1  || ', ' ||
coalesce(quote_literal( $2 ), 'NULL') || ')')"
        PL/pgSQL function "lookup_package_name" line 16 at PERFORM
STATEMENT:  insert into rhnPackageSyncBlacklist (package_name_id)
                values (lookup_package_name('gpg-pubkey'));
LOG:  incomplete startup packet

The odd part is that I do provide de user/password when requested by the
installer and if I try this:

# psql -U spacewalk -W -d spacewalk -h localhost
Password for user spacewalk:
psql (8.4.9)
Type "help" for help.

spacewalk=#

Any idea on where can I try to find the error?
