Hi!
I tried to pass the libpq parameter connect_timeout on the pgagent
command-line without success:
% ./pgagent -f -t60 -l2 dbname=xxx user=tkren connect_timeout=5
Sun Aug 20 18:24:26 2017 : DEBUG: Creating primary connection
Sun Aug 20 18:24:26 2017 : ERROR: Primary connection string is not valid!
connInfo::getConnectionString() misspelled this parameter as
connection_timeout, which subsequently breaks the PQconnectdb() call
in DBconn::Connect():
% ./pgagent -f -t60 -l2 dbname=xxx user=tkren connection_timeout=5

This suggests pgAgent is not using the latest version of libpq.
Please use LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment to inform pgAgent to use the libpq, it is compiled with.

During my code inspection, I realized that pgagent does not support
application_name and other parameters from libpq:
% ./pgagent -f -t60 -l2 dbname=xxx user=tkren application_name=abc

See also this thread on pgadmin-support:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/559AC825.6010708% 40agliodbs.com
Using PGAPPNAME would be an option, but we use pgagent on Windows as
well, and this makes it unnecessarily hard to set environment
variables for services. It would be also be nice to have support for
application_name on the jobstep level, but PGAPPNAME can only be set
globally.
To fix this issue, I've refactored connInfo and DBconn and use of
PQconninfoParse() for connection string parsing. With the attached
patch applied, pgagent supports both vanilla keyword/value connection
strings and postgresql:// URIs as command-line options as well as
stored in the jstconnstr column of pgagent.pga_jobstep. We now
support all parameter keywords from libpq, and fix the aforementioned
misspelled connect_timeout parameter.
In a patched pgagent, we can now do the following. With the jobsteps
shown below that are part of a job running every minute,
xxx=# select * from pgagent.pga_jobstep;
jstid | jstjobid | jstname | jstdesc | jstenabled | jstkind | jstcode | jstconnstr | jstdbname | jstonerror | jscnextrun
-------+----------+-------------------------+---------+----- -------+---------+------------ ---------+-------------------- ----------------------------+- ----------+------------+------ ------
2 | 1 | pg_sleep(10) local | | t | s | select pg_sleep(10) | | xxx | f |
3 | 1 | pg_sleep(10) remote uri | | t | s | select pg_sleep(10) | postgresql://tkren@localhost:5432/xxx | | f |
1 | 1 | pg_sleep(10) remote | | t | s | select pg_sleep(10) | user=tkren host=localhost port=5432 dbname=xxx | | f |
(3 rows)
we can run pgagent and get the following trace. Note that connection
pooling works as intended with postgresql:// URIs and keyword/value
connection strings.
