I finally got DSpace installed without too many problems (it wouldn't 
configure mirage2 for
some reason) and I can login via the admin account and create new users. Or 
so it appears.

When I try to "reset password" for the new users I get a "Connection 
refused" error. Strangely,
my first attempt earlier in the week actually sent email to the test 
account's email address but
the link was incorrect (wrong hostname) and didn't work. It hasn't sent 
email since.

I double-checked the pg_hba.conf settings. I'm using what was recommended 
for security:
  host    dspace      dspace      127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255   md5
Tomcat runs as 'dspace' so I reset the 'dspace' password for both the Linux 
'dspace' user and
'dspace' database account to make sure they matched what is configured in 
tomcat's local.conf
file then restarted Postgresql and Tomcat. Still "connection refused" when 
I try to set passwords.
I've convince myself that it's a Tomcat<=>Postgres disconnect, I'm just not 
sure what or why,
especially since they're running on the same host.

The fact that I'm able to login as the administrator and (appear to) create 
new users means
Tomcat is actually connecting to the postgres database (right?) but then 
why does nothing else
seem to work? DSpace knows about those new users but Postgres doesn't, so I 
believe changes
are being made via Tomcat/DSpace to DSpace files but not by Tomcat/Postgres 
to the database.

Any ideas what's going on and how to correct it?
