What happens when you connect using the same user/password using PSQL? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Glenn Sullivan Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 4:41 PM To: pgsql-general Subject: [GENERAL] Problem connecting to postmaster
Hi, I have installed native postgresql8.0.1 on a PC running Windows XP professional. I am having trouble connecting to it from my application. The application is a combination of java and C++ which was developed on Sun Solaris (Unix). Thus on the PC, I have installed Microsoft Interix (Service For Unix) on the PC to run the application. I don't know if this is the problem or not, but I am thus trying to connect to the DB running native from an application running from Interix. Does anyone know if this is inherently a problem? My java code connects to the DB using DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://gandalf:5432/mydb", user, passwd); I get a PSQLException with a null message when this is executed. I start up the postmaster with -i to allow TCP/IP connections. I set Windows Firewall to "off" Does anyone have any experience using Interix (SFU) connecting to the DB? Any suggestions?
