I=92m a PHP/PostGRE newbie. I=92m getting this error:

Warning: pg_connect(): Unable to connect to PostgreSQL server: could not
connect to server: Connection refused Is the server running on host
localhost and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432? . in
/export/home/tsc/a/delete-action.phtml on line 156
Couldn't make a connection!

This is the code I=92m trying to run:
$connection =3D pg_connect("host=3Dlocalhost dbname=3Daddress user=3Daddr=
ess
password=3Daddress");

This is my pg_hba.conf
local all all password

This is the output of =93netstat =96an | grep 5432=94
unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 27649 /tmp/.s.PGSQL.54=
32

I=92m able to do =93psql =96u address=94 and supply and username and pass=
word as any
Unix user defined in the system.


Can anyone tell me what I=92m doing wrong? Thanks.

Re: pg_connect problem

in your pg_hba.conf must set a line with the follow:


local all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust
local all all IP.OF.YOUR.MACHINE YOUR.GATEWAY trust

and in your postgresql.conf must set the port =3D 5432 without the commen=
t
restart the postgresql and it must work

Regards

No problem. I've run into this on several occasions when I'm setting up
a new server and forget to make that one minor little change. It's a
good default security setting, however it adds one extra little step for
us. heh
