This is virtual server with centos 5.5 in internet.
I have successfully instaled web2py with Apache and mod_wsgi based
mainly on instructions from
http://web2py.com/AlterEgo/default/show/239 and
http://web2py.com/AlterEgo/default/show/240
Probably last step is missing.
I am getting this error when accessing site from internet:
RuntimeError: Failure to connect to DB. Tried 5 times
when I start it from command line, it shows support for PostgreSQL:
python2.6 web2py/web2py.py -i xx.xx.xx.xx -p 7777 -a password

I can verify access from command line:
psql -U w2p -d w2p -h 127.0.0.1 -p 5432
Password for user w2p:
Welcome to psql 8.1.21, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help with psql commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit
w2p=# \q
It works.
In ... web2py/applications/welcome/models/db.py
db = DAL('postgres://w2p:[email protected]:5432/w2p')
What could be the problem? I have no further idea how to verify the
reason for failure of connection.
