Since you aren't specifying a host (with -h), that command uses a Unix
socket connection and only looks at lines in pg_hba.conf that begin with
"local".

(If you want to do the same in JDBC, make the hostname value blank.)

What happens if you change "host" to "hostnossl" in pg_hba.conf?
(Seeing that that error message specifies that SSL is off.)
Please remember to SIGHUP or restart the postmaster after changing it.

Again, which version of PostgreSQL is this?
