Thread: No pg_hba.conf entry
Hello, When I try to connect via JDBC to PostgreSQL I get the following error message: Error -- Something unusual has occured to cause the driver to fail. Please report this exception: java.sql.SQLException: No pg_hba.conf entry for host 143.233.73.254, user aaa, database bbb However, the only lines in pg_hba.conf that are not commented out are: local all trust host all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust host all 143.233.73.0 255.255.255.0 trust Isn't this strange? I tried this with both jdbc6.5-1.2.jar and jdbc7_0-1_2.jar from 143.233.73.254 which runs Linux and from my WinNT 4.0 (sp6) machine and for different databases. I use PostgreSQL 6.5.2 and before you ask, yes postmaster runs with the -i option set. Any comments will be more than welcome.

Yes, very. Are you sure you and the postmaster are looking at the same
file? Is there some kind of formatting problem with the file, such as
using non-Unix newlines? Have you looked at the postmaster log to see
if it gives any more detail?

If you missed -i out you would have got "Connection Refused" not this Exception. The postmaster is listening, but is refusing the connection for some reason. Can you use psql or another interface from 143.233.73.254?

Are you sure you and the postmaster are looking at the same file? Yes, that was exactly the problem! I still have to find out how on earth we ended up with two sets of configuration files! Thanks Tom, thanks Peter!
