PostgreSQL runs as a service in the background; the PostgreSQL service account is named postgres. If you have already created a service account with the name postgres, you must specify same password as the existing password for the postgres service account.
The specified password must conform to any security policies existing on the PostgreSQL host. After entering a password in the Password field, and confirming the password in the Retype Password field, click Next to continue.
