trying to understand your situation,
I have installed a v8.4 and first port using localhost is ok - default port is 5432
You can only use one port for one instance of postgres, default port 5432 can be overridden by any new port number.
Thanks

you can run different instances of postgresql on different ports as long as their $PGDATA directories are different.Amy Smith wrote:

Is that only one port is allowed for one server ?
please help - need expert's advice.
is this second server configured to LISTEN_ADDRESSES='*' ?
