Since further configuration, remain unable to connect to the php database.

Further configuration of what?


The postgresql configuration file:

SHOW hba_file;
        /etc/postgresql/9.6/main/pg_hba.conf
SHOW config_file;
        /etc/postgresql/9.6/main/postgresql.conf

After the configuration change did you restart the server?


Yes; the php web page recognised changes, for example removal of the comment 
instruction:
"
<html>
        <head>
                Generic CPAC
        </head>
        <body>
                <?php
                        //echo '<p>Hello World</p>'
                        /*successful test of configuration of apache http 
server*/
                        phpinfo();
                ?>
        </body>
</html>
"

That is the Apache server restarting. I was asking about restarting the Postgres server. Was that done?


Is the pg_hba.conf file the correct one for the database instance?


Changes were made to the function 'listen_addressess' to the configuration file 
shown in above.

The connection was reaching the database so the 'listen_addresses' is correct. The issue is with the settings in pg_hba.conf and the connection being attempted. There have been similar problems with various OSes and their handling of localhost/120.0.0.2/::1.

So for the machine that is running the Postgres server:

1) OS and version?

2) The contents of /etc/hosts

3) What happens if you do?:

psql -d cpacweb -h 127.0.0.1 -U cpaca




What does:

pg_lsclusters

show?


pg_lsclusters
Ver Cluster Port Status Owner    Data directory               Log file
9.6 main    5432 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/9.6/main 
/var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.6-main.log
