Thread: Can't connect to PGSQL

Can't connect to PGSQL

From

We have installed LinuxRedhat+PgSQL in our server. We
can ping the server's IP. But we cannot connect our
database through PGAdmin or our application. We have
already set the port to the default.

1. What seems to be the problem?
2. How can I read the server's activities?(reading the
log)

Find your postgresql.conf file i.e. 'locate postgresql.conf'.
Edit it and change this line:

tcpip_socket = false

to look like this:

tcpip_socket = true

Not sure.  Look in the /var/log directory to see if RedHat sets up
postgresql to log there.

Check to see if you installed RedHat with firewall rules.  This might
also prevent connections.
