this is running in a freebsd jail - 'localhost' will apply to whats inside the jail. The postgres database is running on the same physical machine but outside the jail - so it needs to be addressed at 127.0.0.1, and not at 'localhost' - i am no expert in these things and anyway they are irrelevant to my question. My question is: when i put a string as '127.0.0.1' for the db host, why doesnt init try to access that? As mentioned, in the the other site on the same server, django has no problem in accessing the database at '127.0.0.1'. So i feel it is some bug in init > > El mié, 02-11-2005 a las 16:28 +0530, Kenneth Gonsalves escribió: > > hi > > i have an application running on a freebsd 'jail'.
