Hi,
I have postgres 13 running on centos 7.
I am facing an issue while trying to connect the cluster using the below
command.
-bash-4.2$ psql postgres
psql: error: connection to server on socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432" failed:
Permission denied
With the Postgres server running does:
/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432
exist?
Is the server running locally and accepting connections on that socket?
but when I am trying to connect using the below command I am able to
login to the cluster successfully.
-bash-4.2$ psql postgres -h localhost
postgres=#
The above works because you are not connecting to local(the socket), but
to localhost(127.0.0.1 or ::1).
I am not sure what is causing this issue and what needs to be done to
resolve it ?
Best guess is you are using a version of psql that is expecting the
socket to be somewhere else then where it actually is.
Regards.
