The old postgresql 13 was running on 5432.

I thought I had shut it down before running the 14 installer.

No matter, your suggestion about 5433 was the key I needed to open the door.

Thanks for all your patience and help: greatly appreciated.

regards

Simon

When you use the PostgreSQL installer on windows,
If you have a PostgreSQL instance running already on Port 5432, it defaults

So my guess is you had your bitnami running on Port 5432, it detected that,
so then installed on Port 5433.

So your old would have 5432, your new PostgreSQL 14 would be 5433.

That's why I mentioned, if you wanted it to run on default PostgreSQL 5432,
you can do the

Run the sql:
ALTER SYSTEM Set port = '5432';

Then restart the service.

And that registry change I mentioned.

Open regedit.exe

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PostgreSQL\Services\postgresql-x64-14\

Key: Port


The registry change you do so if you install other extensions such as
postgis or pgAgent that need to connect to the database, they read the port
number from the registry and default to that. I think pgAdmin4 also when you
first setup reads port from registry.

Hold that thought.

Port 5432 didn't work on DFDB as I thought it did.

Port 5433 works.

Has the default port changed with database installs?
