In postgresql.conf I have
listen_addresses = 'localhost'
unix_socket_directories = '/tmp'
However when I try to connect
with psql
[13:27:08 slanglois@tron data]$ psql postgres
psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
[13:28:02 slanglois@tron data]$ ls -al /tmp/.*PGSQL*
srwxrwxrwx 1 slanglois eng 0 Jul 20 13:19 /tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432
-rw------- 1 slanglois eng 59 Jul 20 13:19 /tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432.lock
even though I have the following in pg_hba.conf
local all all trust
I tried to specify the host but it still doesn't connect
[13:32:24 slanglois@tron data]$ psql -h localhost postgres
psql: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "::1", user "slanglois", database "postgres", SSL off
host all all ::1/128 trust
I was going to put this under a new subject but it seems to me like it is still related to the lock file being expected in /var/run/postgres when it is trying to connect even though I changed it to /tmp.
Why is the local connection not working without having to add host ::1/128 to the pg_hba.conf file. I thought specifying local all all trust would allow any local connection.
