localhost resolving
Hi there,
I have a problem with local host resolving.
LOG: could not resolve "localhost": host nor service provided, or
not known
LOG: disabling statistics collector for lack of working socket
LOG: database system was shut down at 2006-12-08 14:15:00 MET
LOG: checkpoint record is at 1/43D72F28
LOG: redo record is at 1/43D72F28; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE
LOG: next transaction ID: 11477951; next OID: 16775
LOG: next MultiXactId: 14; next MultiXactOffset: 34
LOG: database system is ready
LOG: transaction ID wrap limit is 2147484146, limited by database
"postgres"
=========
I am running HP-UX 11.23 and have installed postgresql 8.1.3
Localhost is in /etc/hosts, I also have nsswitch.conf and resolv.conf
configured.
gridy 23: nslookup localhost
Name Server: dns1.ethz.ch
Address: 129.132.98.12
Trying DNS
Trying NIS
looking up FILES
Name: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1
Aliases: loopback
Can anyone help me on this.
Thanks,
Tonko

Googling suggests that that's HPUX's spelling of EAI_NONAME, implying
that resolution of the given name failed.
Localhost is in /etc/hosts, I also have nsswitch.conf and resolv.conf
configured.
Configured how? The nslookup result shows that your DNS server refuses
to resolve "localhost", so I'm thinking you made a mistake somewhere
such that getaddrinfo() isn't looking in /etc/hosts.
