Hi,
I just registered my acount using this url:
https://www.postgresql.org/account/signup/, then i use the new account
to login www.postgresql.org <http://www.postgresql.org&gt;, everything
works well.
But when I try to login wiki.postgresql.org
<http://wiki.postgresql.org&gt; using the same account, i got an error:
There is no user by the name "myaccount". Check your spelling.
Yet another page for registering at wiki.postgresql.org
<http://wiki.postgresql.org&gt;, named
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Special:UserLogin/signup, tells me i
can't signup a new account for wiki.
how to register an acount for wiki.postgresql.org
<http://wiki.postgresql.org&gt;?
Thanks!

Hi there,

Only guessing, but there was a major reconfiguration of the web
infrastructure recently, which may be causing the problem.

It would be a good idea to post to the pgsql-www mailing list also, as
the web team monitors this one.

You might try just waiting an hour or so --- I'm not sure how often
those machines get synced.

There should be no waiting period for this, the wiki should work right away.

What username did you use? I'll go check the logs for anything suspicious..
