| Hello, I am having trouble connecting to one specific database on my server. I can connect to the server via pgadmin and have pgadmin display 7 or 8 databases I have running on the server. I can successfully connect to all of the databases except one. This particular database I am trying to connect to will just cause pgadmin to hang/crash I have been using pgadmin for over 2 years to connect to this particular database that wont connect now. This just started happening a week ago and is frustrating me so bad! I have installed/reinstalled/uninstalled about every version on pgadmin with no success. I restarted postgres on the server with no success. My server is running linux, and I am using windows version of pgadmin. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE ANY HELP!!! THANKS SO MUCH!!! Matt Busby |

| I cannot tell you what is specificially wrong, but try the following: Can you telnet to that database and query? Is the postmaster running for that database? Do you get any errors returned when you try to connect via telnet? What are they? Is it possible your database is corrupted and you need to restore/rebuild? ________________________________ From: pgadmin-support-owner@postgresql.org [mailto Sent: Monday, January 22, 2007 9:37 AM To: pgadmin-support@postgresql.org Subject: [pgadmin-support] Cannot connect to one specific postgres database on a server Hello, I am having trouble connecting to one specific database on my server.

| Can you connect to it OK using psql on the server's console? If you can, try dumping the database using pg_dump, then restore it as a different database and try connecting via PgAdmin to the new copy.

| Hi. I am one idea. Please set up a log as the option of pgAdmin and acquire it. The information on it and the version to be used is required. we have to avoid hang/crash ......:-( Regards, Hiroshi Saito ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy Shellam (Mailing Lists)" > Can you connect to it OK using psql on the server's console? > If you can, try dumping the database using pg_dump, then restore it as a > different database and try connecting via PgAdmin to the new copy. > > > Matt Busby wrote: >> >> Hello, >> >> I am having trouble connecting to one specific database on my server. >> I can connect to the server via pgadmin and have pgadmin display 7 or >> 8 databases I have running on the server.

| I can telnet to the database and query the database.. The site that is using the database is also running fine Not sure what postmaster is.. How can I check if its running? I did a google search for it, but not sure how to check it on my postgres db server I don't get any errors using telnet . I can access the db every other way it seems, just using postgres If I restore/rebuild the db, will that cause the database to go down at all? I will try anything to get pgadmin working with the db. it makes my life SOOO much easier! Thanks very much for taking the time to help me with this issue! Much appreciated!

| If you can query the database with telnet, than the postmaster has to be running. The next step is to check pg_hba.conf on that server and insure that your computers ip addess is listed as a trusted connection. eg: a line similar to host all all 765.432.111.0 255.255.255.0 trust ^-------------------- replace with your ip address If nothing else works, I would delete that server connectrion it pgadmin and just re-add it again. ________________________________ From: pgadmin-support-owner@postgresql.org [mailto Sent: Monday, January 22, 2007 12:10 PM To: Melvin Davidson Cc: pgadmin-support@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [pgadmin-support] Cannot connect to one specific postgres database on a server I can telnet to the database and query the database....
