find your postgresql.conf file, look in there to make sure tcpip_socket = true. the directory that file is in should be the same as the $PGDATA that your getting asked for, so you'll be able to do pg_ctl -D /path/to/database status Robert Treat On Wed, 2003-02-12 at 09:30, vivek K. wrote: Hello All, I am getting this error when i am using sql-ledger application. it is giving this error : Error : could not connect to server: Connection refused I have given these values : Host :192.168.168.56 User Name:SQL-ledger Password : SQL-ledger and connect to: Template1 where Template1 is the DB template in postgresql on RH Linux 7.3 (postgresql 7.2.X).I created a user as sql-ledger #su postgres $ createuser -d sql-ledger The post master is running and but the status is # pg_ctl status pg_ctl: no database directory or environment variable $PGDATA is specified .
