When I try to run % psql
as the postgres user, I get the error psql: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "[local]", user "postgres", database "postgres", SSL off I don't understand this error, since the pg_hba.conf file includes the line: local all all ident sameuser What could explain this behavior? Incidentally, is there a general way to get positive confirmation that a particular pg_hba.conf has been re-read upon bouncing the server with kill -HUP <PID> ? TIA! kynn
