Adrian, I originally did install PostgreSQL 12 from the repository. Then I removed it and decided to do it from source. I do have two postgresql.conf files and two pg_hba.conf files in two different locations. I guess I need to know which one to keep. When I enter SHOW config_file;, I get the location /usr/local/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf. There is a pg_hba.conf file in there too. Anyways, the version that I installed from source is version 12. The setting in postgresql.conf is listen_addresses = ‘*’ and the port is 5432. listen_addresses is uncommented but port is commented out. Jason L.

I did install from source which I already knew how to do. I got the source package from PostgreSQL. I basically followed these instructions: One of your previous posts showed: "/etc/postgresql/9.4/main." which would indicate that Postgres was also installed using deb packaging. This is something you probably want to follow up on as different Postgres instances from different sources can be an issue in and of itself. In the meantime as to your issue: 1) What Postgres version did you install from source? 2) In /usr/local/pgsql/data what is the exact setting for listen_addresses and port in postgresql.conf > > sudo ./configure -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxxxx
