After messing with this all week and getting nowhere, I'm ready to pay
someone to call me at 800-481-5022 ext 3005 to get this resolved ASAP. Our
online scheduling system has been down all week and the troops are ready to
revolt. Background:
A RedHat Upgrade Saturday from 8.0 to 9.0 just did a 'minor' version
upgrade from 7.3.1 to 7.3.2. However, I have not been able to get a
connection since
the upgrade. Postmaster loads fine, but I get:
FATAL: Missing or erroneous pg_hba.conf file, see postmaster log for details
Here is my pg_hba.conf file (from /var/lib/pgsql/data) that has always
worked:
# TYPE DATABASE USER IP-ADDRESS IP-MASK METHOD
local all all
trust
host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255
trust
host all all 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
trust
host all all 24.128.216.179 255.255.255.255
md5
host all all 217.33.107.74 255.255.255.248
md5
I even reloaded the entire data directory from tape backup. Postgresql.conf
file is the
default - all lines commented out. Postmaster starts with:
su -l postgres -s /bin/sh -c "/usr/bin/pg_ctl -D $PGDATA -p
/usr/bin/postmaster -o '-i -p ${PGPORT}' start > /var/log/pgsql 2>&1" <
/dev/null
(where $PGDATA is /var/lib/pgsql/data and $PGPORT is 5432)
pgsql log shows:
FATAL: Missing or erroneous pg_hba.conf file, see postmaster log for
details
"OG: parse_hba: invalid syntax in pg_hba.conf file at line 31, token "
Even the log entry doesn't look right - double quotes - and the .conf file
certainly doesn't have 31 lines!
Please call if you have any ideas how to fix this. Thanks.
