Hi folks!

That's another "sob sob.. I can't connect to socket blah blah .. .s.PGSQL.5432" asking for help. But this is somewhat bizarre, and i'm not used to the 8.2's postgresql.conf file.

I'm running a PostgreSQL 8.4.2 powered by Debian Sarge (very)Unstable. My PHP application successfully connects to the appropriated database. Even PgAdmin3 connects to the database. But my 'postgres' user cannot connect to the database via command line:

----------
psql: could not connect to server:
        Is the server running locally and accepting
        connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
----------

Well, the socket file actually IS there (zero bytes of size) and it's given the correct permissions. Now, I have this in my pg_hba.conf (replace XXX by my network, and I just added the second line recently, in despair):

----------
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
local   all         all                               trust
# IPv4 local connections:
host    all         all         XXX.XXX.XXX.1 /24       trust
host    all         postgres    127.0.0.1/32          trust
# IPv6 local connections:
host    all         all         ::1/128               trust
----------

Finally, that's the hot section in my postgresql.conf:

----------
listen_addresses = '*'                  # what IP address(es) to listen on; 
port = 5432                             # (change requires restart)
----------

So, I just can't connect in the database through command line. Someone can waste some time helping me?

Thanks in advance =)
