Hi there

My PostgreSQL 9.1 installed on an Ubuntu/64 10.04 machine is running fine.

I installed pgAgent with "sudo apt-get install pgagent" (that is probably
version 3.0.1).

I executed the .sql script to create the pgagent objects in the database.

sudo su postgres
psql -d postgres
postgres-# \dn
  List of schemas
  Name   |  Owner
---------+----------
 pgagent | postgres
 public  | postgres
(2 rows)

-> Database seems fine!

-> The problem I am having is that I can not start pgagent. When I try:

cd /usr/bin
./pgagent hostaddr=127.0.0.1 port=5432 dbname=postgres user=postgres

and I get the following errors:

/usr/bin$ WARNING: Couldn't create the primary connection (attempt 1):

        Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting

Any idea?

P.S: I also tried to run pgagent with sudo..... -> The same errors!

Thanks,
P.
