Hi All, I am having an issue with version 9.5. I am unable to connect locally with psql using port syntax. This worked in earlier versions (for sure in 9.3). We downloaded and installed postgres from rpm(s). The installation is on Linux-x64. We did pg_upgrade of an existing 9.5.3 cluster.
psql -U postgres -d template1 -p 5434
psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5434"? The socket is in /tmp and that is where it is supposed to be. srwxrwxrwx 1 postgres postgres 0 Aug 13 08:16 .s.PGSQL.5434 -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 49 Aug 13 08:16 .s.PGSQL.5434.lock Following line is from postgresql.conf: unix_socket_directories = ‘/tmp’ Do you know why the new build (9.5.3 psql and 9.5.4 as well) is looking in /var/run/postgresql? This seems to be some inconsistency
in new build. BTW, I can connect successfully to this 9.5 database using 9.3 psql executable. Thanks for reading my post. Murthy Nunna Database Services Group Enterprise Server Operations Dept. Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory |
