Thanks John, I tried that and it works but with some changes I made.
After the changes you suggested I was still getting the same message:
Warning: pg_pconnect() [function.pg-pconnect]: Unable to connect to
PostgreSQL server: could not connect to server: Permission denied Is the
server running on host "localhost" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port
5432?
Anyway I managed to connect to localhost, but after I made changes to
pg_connect and I removed the host name
FROM
1. pg_pconnect("host=localhost dbname=mydb user=myuser
password=mypassword");
TO
1. pg_pconnect("dbname=mydb user=myuser password=mypassword");
Now it works, but VERY SLOWER than before.
One of the scripts I'm running on the previous host took below 2 sec for
1000 entries and now it takes 1 sec for 100 entries.
working pg_hba.conf looks like this:
1. # IPv4 local connections:
2. local all all trust
3. local all my_user ident sameuser
4. local my_db my_user password
5. host my_db my_user 0.0.0.0/0 password
6. # IPv6 local connections:
7. host all all 127.0.0.1/32 ident sameuser
8. host all all ::1/128 ident sameuser

the first local all all takes precedence as that matches any local
(domain socket) connections. as is, you're saying any process running
your server can connect to any database as any user with no
authorization required.
however, none of those lines affect localhost IP connections, those
instead would match a `host .... 127.0.0.1/32 ....`
I most typically use the following...
local all all ident sameuser # allow local domain connections to
authenticate only as themselves
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5 # allow localhost IP connections to
authenticate with passwords only
and sometimes...
host all all my.ip.sub.net/24 md5 # allow any user on my IP subnet to
authneticate with passwords
