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
