The database password was set to 'b8B%6%P!#0' in /etc/pganalyze-collector.conf .
pganalyze-collector --test said authentication was failed.
The given password worked well using pgsql and I was able to login.
Then the password was replaced to a new one without % and !.
Both pgsql and pganalyze-collector --test ran successfully without any issue.
Are there not allowed characters for passwords?

@tomako This issue was missed for 2 weeks - apologies.

Its likely that this was/is purely an escaping problem in our config file parser library (https://github.com/go-ini/ini). If you have a moment, could you try escaping the password with " instead of ' and see if that works?
