pgadmin3 / postgresql newbie question
|
|
|
hi all,
running amd64 fedora core 3 w/ default postgresql
7.4.7-3. did asu - , su postgres and createdb mydb as
explained in the postgresql tutorial. installed the
latest pgadmin3 and am trying to connect to this
database. as i wasn't sure what the FC3 default
password was for postgres, i changed it to something i
could remember.
i can't seem to connect to the new database using
pgadmin3. i have the correct IP address of the local
computer, default port 5432, mydb as the initaldb,
postgres as the username, and my new password as the
password. i keep getting the error
Error connecting to the server: could not connect to
server: Connection refused
Is the server running on host "192.168.1.24" and
accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
i also verified the postgresql service is running, and
that i've added the following to
/etc/raddb/postgresql.conf:
login = "postgres"
password = "mynewpassword"
and right underneath it:
tcpip = true
i've also disabled my local firewall and SELINUX just
for kicks. and yes, i did a reboot.
so...anyone know what else i can look at?
many thanks!

Did you start the postmaster using '-i' to allow tcp/ip connections?

Did you set up the pg_hba.conf file with the proper security rights?

This file is part of the freeradius package, and despite the name,
has nothing to do with your PostgreSQL configuration.
The default path for the real PostgreSQL configuration file is:
/var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf
I don't know if running TCP/IP is a requirement for pgadmin3, but
if you need to access the _local_ PostgreSQL server, most clients
would do w/o configuring TCP/IP support at all.
| Quote: | login = "postgres"
password = "mynewpassword"
and right underneath it:
tcpip = true
|
These do not belong to PostgreSQL server configurarion. It's RADIUS stuff.

1) make sure postgresql is running (use ps - look for a postmaster process)
2) if it's not there, run following command as root:
service postgresql start
3) if you want it to run automatically at boot, and it doesn't, run
the following command as root:
chkconfig postgresql on
this won't start the process if it's not running. It just sets a flag
for the next boot.
4) i don't get what you mean for changing postgres password. To switch
to the postgres user, I usually switch to root first, and then to postgres.
Root can switch to any user w/o password. Actually, it's good security
practice not to assign any password to system pseudo-accounts ("postgres"
is one of them) and leave them locked. If you need a different access
method, I strongly suggest to look at the PostgreSQL way to authenticate
users and stop using the 'ident' method (see pg_hba.conf), which forces
you to run clients with a certain Unix user id.
5) try and access to the db with the psql client first. Use the same
connection method you're using with pgadmin3, and run it under the same
user you run pgadmin3 with. E.g.:
psql -h localhost -p 5432 -U postgres mydb
see psql manual for details.
If you successfully get to 5), it's likely it's a pgadmin3 problem.
..TM.

That particular error message is typically associated with a missing
pg_hba.conf entry that tells the postgreSQL server which remote machines to
allow connections FROM....
# If you want to allow non-local connections, you need to add more
# "host" records. Also, remember TCP/IP connections are only enabled
# if you enable "tcpip_socket" in postgresql.conf.
# TYPE DATABASE USER IP-ADDRESS IP-MASK METHOD
local all all trust
# IPv4-style local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust
# IPv6-style local connections:
host all all ::1
ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff trust
host all all 10.1.10.23 255.255.255.255 trust

pgadmin3 does not seem to want to connect to the server using UNIX
sockets, it only does it through TCP.
Set up the Postgres server to use TCP (as well as UNIX sockets) - i.e. -
starting postmaster with the -i option, sorting it pg_hba.conf etc.

Make sure to include the above address (or most likely the hostname
equivalent) to your list of listen_addresses in postgresql.conf.
