The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference: 15508
Logged by: Yogesh Jadhav
Email address: yogesh.jadhav@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 11.1
Operating system: Windows 10
Description:

I am trying to connect a Postgres database which resides in a docker
installed on Ubuntu virtual machine. Following exception is being thrown on
the console.

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host
"10.1.X.X", user "usrXXX", database "dbXXX", SSL off

After going through various posts, I realised that I have to update
pg_hba.conf file. I have modified the file to include the following
settings.

host dbXXX usrXXX 10.1.X.X/32 trust

*(Note I tried with md5 as well.)*

I verified the postgres database settings through `psql` and executed
commands as specified in this
post(https://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/161104/pgadmin-postgresql-no-pg-hba-conf-entry-for-host).
This verified that I am editing correct file. To take a step further, I also
verified the entry through pgAdmin (*pgAdmin is installed locally on
postgres host*) and found the following query is returning records as
entered in pg_hba.conf

table pg_hba_file_rules;

You can get the images about infrastructure and pgAdmin query results at

Did you reload/restart the server after making the changes? That file is
cached during startup.

Thanks for your response, David. I did restart postgres server (in fact
more than 10 times).

Well, the three possibilities are (1) you edited the wrong file, (2) you
did not restart/reload the server, and (3) you put the wrong info into
the file. We seem to have eliminated (1) and (2) so that leaves (3).
What is the pg_hba.conf entry that you are expecting to match this
connection request?

You may have to show us the un-obfuscated server error message, too,
if you want an accurate diagnosis of why it's not matching the connection.
