If it's a server-side failure it should have a SQLSTATE code.


Specifically, I'm talking about


"no pg_hba.conf entry for ....",


ERRCODE_INVALID_AUTHORIZATION_SPECIFICATION


"Ident authentication failed.." (both server sice)


Ditto.  Do you need to know the difference?  What exactly would client
code do differently for these two cases?

Display different hints how to cope with this. The hint will arise for newbies, and it would be confusing to discuss ident auth when a missing pg_hba.conf line is the problem, and vice versa.


and "Is the server running on host ..." from libpq


libpq doesn't currently assign SQLSTATEs to internally detected errors
... someday someone should fix that.

Ok, I'm blind. Where in h**l do I find the SQLSTATE from a PGconn?!?
