Hello, I discussed my problem at www.pg-forum.de with Mr. Scherbaum (ADS) and he recommended me to inform you about this problem.
I worked on my Mac-Book (Mac OS X 10.6.6) with postgresql database version 9 (postgresql-9.0.1-1-osx.dmg). After installing and connecting my HUAWEI E122 data modem (net provider 3 (drei)), I have detected, that I could't connect to database. Disconnecting the HUAWEI modem has no effects. I could not connect to database. Restarting the system makes the database available again. The problem occurs exactly at connecting to internet from 3DataManager. There are no problems with connecting USB-Stick to Mac Book or starting the 3DataManager. I installed the postgresql-database with default settings: host: localhost port: 5432 user: postgres listen_addresses: * This is a netstat-result after connecting via HUAWEI data modem: Active Internet connections (including servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address (state) tcp4 0 0 178.113.226.250..52044 c-98-245-185-91..56489 ESTABLISHED tcp4 0 0 *.21234 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.postgresql *.* LISTEN tcp6 0 0 *.postgres *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 .psf.ipp *.* LISTEN tcp6 0 0 localhost.ipp *.* LISTEN Trying to start a telnet-connection, the result was: telnet 127.0.0.1 5432 Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Operation timed out telnet: Unable to connect to remote host As I had no idea, what the problem could be, I tried installing the latest version of postgresql (postgresql-9.0.2-1-osx.dmg), maybe that this problem is fixed now. But it has no effect. Then I tried reproducing the problem on my Windows 7 system. I installed the HUAWEI data stick and connected it to the internet. I could connect to database without problems!! So I checked the version of postgresql on my windows system. The version is 8.4! (postgresql-8.4.2-1-windows.exe) After uninstalling of postgresql 9 from my Mac Book and installing the latest 8.4 version (postgresql-8.4.6-1-osx.dmg), the problem was also solved. Maybe that the problem is a 32/64 bit problem. best regards, Juergen Wolfsgruber -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
