[Dspace-tech] Allowing access to Postgres

Re: [Dspace-tech] Allowing access to Postgres
On the local machine (as root) try running either lsof -i tcp:5432 This gives me a list of postgres processes, so I guess its working fine? or telnet localhost 5432 This one leaves me hanging, though since it does not fail I think there is someone listening on 5432, right? If either of those shows that postgres is indeed listening on that port, try running the telnet command from the remote machine (something like telnet otto.terkko.helsinki.fi 5432). Trying telnet on another machine however, gives me: telnet: connect to address 128.214.167.212: Connection refused Am I missing a setting somewhere ? -Mika - SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.

Yes, that means it's definitely listening on the correct port. telnet localhost 5432 This one leaves me hanging, though since it does not fail I think there is someone listening on 5432, right? That's strange. It should eventually connect with a message like this: $ telnet localhost 5432 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. If either of those shows that postgres is indeed listening on that port, try running the telnet command from the remote machine (something like telnet otto.terkko.helsinki.fi 5432). Trying telnet on another machine however, gives me: telnet: connect to address 128.214.167.212: Connection refused Are you sure your firewall is set up correctly (/sbin/iptables -L)? If so, try changing listen_addresses to '*' and see if that helps (after restarting postgres, of course). cheers, Jim -- James Rutherford | Hewlett-Packard Limited registered Office: Research Engineer | Cain Road, HP Labs | Bracknell, Bristol, UK | Berks +44 117 312 7066 | RG12 1HN.
