[Anon]

Hi
I am connecting PostGresSql db using folowing code
$conn = pg_Connect("host=127.0.0.1 port=5432 dbname=db1 user=user password=pwd ");

But i am geting following error message

Warning: Unable to connect to PostgresSQL server: PQconnectPoll() -- connect() failed: Connection refused Is the postmaster running (with -i) at '127.0.0.1' and accepting connections on TCP/IP port '5432'? in /home/sites/home/web/sample/pgresql.php on line 13

can anyone pl suggest the solution for above

Uhmmm.... is the database even running? And (to reiterate the helpful error message) did you start it with the -i option?
