Обсуждение: configuring postgresql on the browser
I'm trying to get pgsql to work on my browser but I can't connect. It works great on the shell and the psql webmin module works great but when it comes to phppgadmin or connecting my php application I get a : "Warning: pg_connect() unable to connect to PostgreSQL server: FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "joe"" do i need to add a new user such as localhost or something? I don't why my webmin module is working while my phppgadmin is not. this is what's on my pg_hba.conf file maybe there's something wrong with it: local all all ident sameu\ ser host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 ident sameu\ ser host all all 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 reject \ thanx in advance

Rather you can also change the authentication method to trust or password or md5. regards, bhuvaneswaran

I've got the following in my pg_hba.conf local all all trust host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 md5 Also, in your postgresql.conf make sure you have tcpip_socket = 1 as shown below. # Connection Parameters # # TCP/IP access is allowed by default, but the default access given in # pg_hba.conf will permit it only from localhost, not other machines. tcpip_socket = 1 I think these were the only changes I had to make to get phppgadmin to work on the localhost. HTH. Kevin
