Thread: Problem connecting to Postgresql and creating databases

Problem connecting to Postgresql and creating databases

From

Hi,

I am a postgresql user based in Swaziland (Southern Africa) and I have
recently installed Postgresql on Redhat Linux 7.2.

I am having a problem connecting to the Postmaster and as a result, I am
unable to create databases or install anything that tests to check if
postgresql is running.

The program I tried to install checks if connections to postgres can be
made.

Please help me as I need to install and test Postgresql for a major client.

Hi,

Make sure in postgresql.conf, that these two lines are uncommented:

tcpip_socket = true
port = 5432

Also look in pg_hba.conf to activate particular clients.
