Thread: Postgresql 8.0, Tomcat 5.5 postgresql-8.0.309.jdbc3.jar and hiber nate 2.1 on Windows XP - could not receive data from client: No connectio n could be made because the target machine actively refused it

Hi All,

 I am trying to upgrade a web app running postgres7.3, tomcat 4.1 to the above environment. I have installed the new postgres 8.0 port and the postgresql as a service under user postgres. I can deploy the application to tomcat and everything seems to be running ok until I try to open a database session. The program gets kicked out with no exceptions. ( I have the open session method sandwiched in a try-catch clause and there is also finally segment). As soon as I try to open a db session, the program goes to finally clause with no exception thrown and when looked into the postgres log, I see the following error message

 

"2005-02-01 00:23:55 LOG:  could not receive data from client: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

2005-02-01 00:23:55 LOG:  unexpected EOF on client connection"

 

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

The server code in question (src/backend/libpq/pqcomm.c) explains why
no error is sent to the client.  Why the error happens in the first
place is beyond me though.

r = secure_read(MyProcPort, PqRecvBuffer + PqRecvLength,
                                        PQ_BUFFER_SIZE - PqRecvLength);

if (r < 0)
{
    if (errno == EINTR)
            continue;               /* Ok if interrupted */

        /*
         * Careful: an ereport() that tries to write to the client
         * would cause recursion to here, leading to stack overflow
         * and core dump!  This message must go *only* to the
         * postmaster log.
         */
        ereport(COMMERROR,
                         (errcode_for_socket_access(),
                         errmsg("could not receive data from client: %m")));
        return EOF;
}

I take it this is a windows machine? Is port 5432 blocked on the
firewall either on the machine, or between you and the machine ? Also
make sure tcpip connections are turned on.
