There are a few things I would check. 

a) psql -p 5472 -d fm_db_Server4 
b) SELECT * from foo2; 
c) Do those _2_ statements work separately? That should prove that you're talking to the exact same connection/host/port you expect. 
d) psql -p 5472 -d fm_db_Server4 -c "SELECT * FROM foo2; 

So, step a&b succeed, but step d fails? 

d) psql -p 5472 -d fm_db_Server4 
e) SELECT * from "foo2"; 

If this doesn't work, "foo2," is not a valid relation. It's case-sensitive or some such. Once you can make the table name work within " " marks, THEN try from the command prompt like: 

f) psql -p 5472 -d fm_db_Server4 -c "SELECT * FROM \"foo2\" ; "
