Then it'll try a non-SSL connection, and that one is getting rejected by the server because "hostssl" doesn't permit it, leading to your second message (which clearly shows that that connection wasn't ssl-encrypted). You could adjust your connection parameters on the client side to prevent the useless non-SSL connection attempt. But of course the real question is how come the password authentication failed in the first attempt. Looking into the server's log might yield a clue. regards, tom lane
