Thread: Postgres v8 jdbc connect fails while v7.4 connection works
Folks, I point my app on my local PC at a v8 database on server A and it fails. If I point it at v7.4 db on server B it works. All are Red Hat ES3. I've upgraded to latest drivers. I've checked _hba and confirmed my IP address is there. In fact they are there in the new format x.x.x.0/255 I can connect locally on the box so I know postmaster is running. Any thoughts? TIA...
Make sure you can telnet to port 5432 on the box in question connecting locally doesn't say much look in postgresql.conf and change listen_address to '*' Dave davidb999@gmail.com wrote: >Folks, >I point my app on my local PC at a v8 database on server A and it >fails.

Did you check if tcp/ip is set to true in your config file? -Prasanth. davidb999@gmail.com wrote: > Folks, > I point my app on my local PC at a v8 database on server A and it > fails.

OK...got it. First I had changed listen_address to '*' but had left it commented out<duh!> When I fixed that I tried restarting and hit problem #2... I had hba_conf settings like: host all all 111.123.21.1/32 trust didn't work but going back to old v7 format of host all all 111.123.21.1 255.255.255.0 trust did work. Problem in my definition?

Got ya...that I had not really noticed even though its documented here: http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/client-authentication.html#EXAMPLE-PG-HBA.CONF Thanks all...
