Postgres doesn't ever emit an error message spelled like that. This error means the connection request is never getting to the postmaster, which means either (a) the postmaster isn't actually running, or at least isn't listening on the port you think it is, or (b) there's a packet filter or something similar blocking the connection request from getting through. If you can connect locally but not remotely, then it's almost certainly (b). Check network-related settings to see about opening up port 5432. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
