I'm hoping you can help me.
I am having trouble connecting to a remote Postgresql 7.4.2 database from
pgAdmin3 for Win32. I've tried using 2 different versions (1.02 and 1.20)
on 2 different Windows boxes in 2 different locations. I've tried
connecting as different users to different databases. Each time I
immediately get:
An error has occurred:
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
The local pgadmin.log in debug mode shows something like:
2005-01-05 14:44:10 INFO : Destroying a connect dialogue
2005-01-05 14:44:10 STATUS : Connecting to database...

A look in the server's logs always shows something like this:
Jan 5 14:44:14 csl-db-01 postgres[4606]: [12-1] LOG: connection received:
host=70.19.142.198 port=50833

Jan 5 14:44:14 csl-db-01 postgres[4606]: [14-1] LOG: could not receive data
from client: Connection reset by peer
Jan 5 14:44:14 csl-db-01 postgres[4606]: [15-1] LOG: unexpected EOF on client
connection
I have no problem connecting to the database by other means (e.g.
hand-coded Java via jdbc, psql, as well as pgAdmin3 (1.02 and 1.20) from
a Debian box).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
