Hi all,

When I try to test the database connection, I have the following error :

Can't reach database server or port

SQLState - 08001
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Connection to localhost:5432 refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections.

The postgresql.conf file looks like :

# - Connection Settings -

listen_addresses = '*' # what IP address(es) to listen on;
# comma-separated list of addresses;
# defaults to 'localhost', '*' = all
# (change requires restart)
port = 5432 # (change requires restart)
max_connections = 100 # (change requires restart)

The pg_hba.conf file looks like :

# TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD

# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
local all all trust
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
# IPv6 local connections:
host all all ::1/128 ident
host all all localhost/24 trust

The PostgreSQL service is running.

I tried also to disable the firewall and the antivirus.....without success.

What should I try more ?

Thanks in advance for your precious help

It sounds like you saw Confluence PostgreSQL JDBC direct connection refused . Please double check that PostgreSQL was restarted after the authentication was set to trust instead of ident.

On a side note, I don't think this is the cause of the issue but PostgreSQL ver. 10 is not a supported platform for Confluence 6.4.x: Supported Platforms
