Hi Expert,

After restarting PostgreSQL Server, I am unable to connect postgres from putty, I am getting error

psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
    Is the server running locally and accepting
    connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

While postgres is already running and also I am able to connect databases from PGAdmin tool but not from command prompt.

Software-postgresql-9.3
Os-Centos

You know that a local connection only works when you are logged in
on the database machine, right?

Is your database listening on port 5432?

Connect as user "postgres" and run the following queries:

   SHOW port;
   SHOW unix_socket_directories;

That will show the port and the directories where UNIX sockets are created.

You can use a socket directory name with the -h option of psql.

Yours,
Laurenz Albe

Hi Laurenz Albe,

Thanks for your response.

But file   ".s.PGSQL.5432" does not exist .
How can I re-create this or any other option?

Regards,
Dinesh
