Well, nmap (and lsof) reports that the postgres port is open and
listening, but I still get:
------------
psql: connectDBStart() -- connect() failed: Connection refused
Is the postmaster running at 'localhost'
and accepting connections on Unix socket '5432'?
------------
...whenever I try to run psql (or the regression tests, which use
psql). What else could be the problem? Could it be the psql client?
Is there a way for me to test for connectivity without using psql?
Thanks,
