I used to use SQL Ledger 1.8.2 and 1.8.3, and then I had a hard drive
failure and lost my Linux root partition. This was on Mandrake 8.0.

I've since gotten a new drive, installed Mandrake 8.2, and am trying to
get SQL Ledger 1.8.4, with the patch, up and running.

When I try to use the PG Database Administration page during setup, I
set it to:

Host: 192.168.0.223 - IP of the machine hosting the site
Port: (blank)
User: sqlledger
Password: <password for postgrers user sqlledger>
Connect to: sqlledger

I already created postgres user "sqlledger" using Webmin, and created
database "sqlledger".

I get message:
could not connect to server: Connection refused

My /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf contains:

local   all trust
host    all      192.168.0.223 255.255.255.0 trust  

Here's another error when I change the parameters:

Host: (blank)
Port: (blank)
User: sqlledger
Password: <password for postgres user sqlledger>
Connect to: sqlledger

FATAL 1: No pg_hba.conf entry for host localhost, user sqlledger,
database sqlledger

Yet I specifically have a line in pg_hba.conf that says "local all
trust" which should do it.  Sheesh!


One other difference with the last install I did: webmin didn't see that
postgres was installed, so I had to locate the configuration files and
point webmin to them.  Then it was able to access postgres and see the
template0 and template1 databases that were already there, for example.

I'm new to postgres, I find MySQL much easier to work with - I really
wish SQL Ledger used MySQL instead, it's so easy to work with  ;-)  Oh,
and PHP, too   ;-)  But, if I can get it working, I'll settle for Perl
and Postgres...

TIA

Fred
