postgresql - Server doesn't listen
Hi,

When I try to create a new server connection, I am facing this error.

The server doesn't accept connections: the connection library reports
could not connect to server: Connection refused. Is the server running on host "<ipaddress-of-server>" and accepting TCP/IP connectionson port 5432?

The server is on Centos5 and have installed postgresql-8.3.3 in it.

Please help.

How is pg_hba.conf configured on the server? You need to configure the server to accept external connections.

Ref Chapter 21
