Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Below is the pgbouncer.ini
===
[databases]
;  use db:postgres for connection testing
postgres = port=5432 dbname=postgres

As I said before, with this you can only connect database postgres.

Maybe you want:
* = port=5432
With these you can connect all databases in your cluster.


[pgbouncer]
listen_port = 6543
listen_addr = 127.0.0.1
watch this: maybe you want to connect from the outside: listen_addr = *

admin_users = postgres
auth_type = md5
auth_file = users.txt
I don't know if on ubuntu need or not specify the full path to the users.txt.

server_reset_query = DISCARD ALL;
ignore_startup_parameters = application_name
logfile = pgbouncer.log
pidfile = pgbouncer.pid
pool_mode = session
default_pool_size = 20
log_pooler_errors = 0
===

If I want to test the connection from my application to DB postgres via pgbouncer, which port should I use, post 6543 or port 5432?

The pooler is between client and postgresql server. So, if you want to connect through the pooler you need to connect on 6543.

But I think you really need to read some documentation about pgbouncer.




Thanks

Hi,


My PostgreSQL is 9.2.1 in Ubuntu 12.04, I need to set up a connection
pool by using pgbouncer.


I used "apt-get install pgbouncer", after configuring it, I can now
connect to pgbouncer and can use all pgbouncer SHOW commands,  however:

Q1) Is  version "1.4.2/bouncer" the right one for PostgreSQL 9.2?
$ psql -U postgres -p 6543 pgbouncer
psql.bin (9.2.1, server 1.4.2/bouncer)
WARNING: psql.bin version 9.2, server version 1.4.
Some psql features might not work.
Type "help" for help.
No entry for terminal type "xterm-color";
using dumb terminal settings.


I think the best is the latest: v1.5.4



Q2) if I try the general psql commands, I got errors
for example:
$ psql -U postgres -p 6543 pgbouncer
pgbouncer=# \l
ERROR:  invalid command 'SELECT d.datname as "Name",
pg_catalog.pg_get_userbyid(d.datdba) as "Owner",
pg_catalog.pg_encoding_to_char(d.encoding) as "Encoding",
pg_catalog.array_to_string(d.datacl, '\n') AS "Access privileges"
FROM pg_catalog.pg_database d
ORDER BY 1;', use SHOW HELP;

If you connect to the pgbouncer, which is special, not really a database, you only can show pgbouncer stats and change pgbouncer settings

# SHOW help;
show you available commands.



Q3) I can connect to pgbouncer by using "psql -U postgres -p 6543
pgbouncer", however if I try to use "-d postgres", I got error:
$ psql -U postgres -p 6543 pgbouncer -d postgres
psql.bin: warning: extra command-line argument "pgbouncer" ignored
psql.bin: ERROR:  no working server connection

You need to show us pgbouncer.ini.
And maybe read this before
http://get.enterprisedb.com/docs/Tutorial_All_PPSS_pgBouncer.pdf



Q4) Which port should I use in my application in order to connect to
PostgreSQL via pgbouncer, port 6543 or port 5432?
the port value in pgbounce.ini:
postgres = port=5432 dbname=postgres
listen_port = 6543
the port value in postgresql.conf:
port=5432

With this you make connection pooling only for the database named postgres. This is what you really want?

Read this minihowto too:

Please help!
Thanks
