Subject: Problem opening database with pgaccess
Date: Sun, 3 Jan 1999 15:19:50 +0100
Message-ID: <01be3724$1fbec960$610ef2d4@ccc12457> (raw)

Trying to run pgaccess on Red Hat Linux 5.1.
I get the Open database dialogue box & supply
the necessary hostname, port & database but
then get the message

"Connection to database failed
connectDB() failed: Is the 
postmaster running and
accepting TCP/IP(with -i)
connections at 'localhost' on
port '5432'?"

But the postmaster is running & I can
run psql just fine.  For info, the installation is
a standalone machine with TCP enabled
so pgaccess will have to do a loopback to
connect to a postmaster on the same 
machine.  How, though, do you specify
that TCP should run with -i?

Grateful for any help/ideas.  Thanks.

Pete Newall
