Re: Error"Unable to connect to PostgresSQL server: connectDBStart()"

It says it cannot resolve "localhost" Do you have it defined in your /etc/hosts file (or c:\windows\hosts)?

Once it fails to resolve localhost it cannot create a connection to the database which in turn is the next operation on that connection (that you didn't create) fails with the second error message.

working fine and PHP was connecting sql server without any problems.

I am not getting what the problem was. Beform some times it used to come
but when i restarted the system it used to work fine.
Pls anybody tell me what the problem is and any suggestions pls since the
server has to run all the 24 hours and 365 days.
        thanks in advance
              Arun
