Hi, Thank you for your suggestion, I set my listen_address = ' * ', and I want to connect to local server. After I modified listen_address from localhost to *, the error message left to one line: **************************************************************************************** FATAL: could not open lock file "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432.lock": Permission denied But still, I cannot link to server. Thank you again!
