I have had a development environment set up in Windows for Django. Recently I moved all my python/django setup to cygwin because I got tired of the windows command line. Everything seems to be working except the PostgreSQL connection. I understand that I can install postgres inside of cygwin and access it there, but is it possible to access my windows install of postgres from within cygwin? If so, how? I get errors trying to connect to localhost:54 File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/db/backends/ postgresql_psycopg2/base.py", line 98, in _cursor self.connection = Database.connect(**conn_params) psycopg2.OperationalError: could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?32 -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
