Everything was running fine under the default number 5432. After the

So, how to change the port number cleanly? There other Postgis
components on the system too.
postgresql.conf only affects the server. dblink is a client.
Either set PGPORT environment variable, or explicitly call out the port
number you want as part of the libpg connection string. See:
