What are you using to attach to PostgreSQL? (e.g. psql.exe ? pgadmin III? Something else?) What does your pg_hba.conf file look like? I usually change mine so that the local host can attach: # TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD # IPv4 local connections: host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust # IPv6 local connections: host all all ::1/128 trust When you look at your services, do you see the PostgreSQL service running? -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
