If you're not sure then it would be better to post to another mailing list like pgsql-general or one of the more specific lists. That would expose your question to a larger pool of expertise, and it would minimize the number of false bug reports. > int ret=PQconnectdb("hostaddr=192.168.200.10 dbname=dbm user=postgres > sslmode=prefer"); > > ' ret' prints -1. PQconnectdb() returns a PGconn * -- why are you assigning the return value to an int? After PQconnectdb() you should be calling PQstatus() and checking its return value. If the status isn't CONNECTION_OK then PQerrorMessage() should return a string saying why.
