Re: PostgreSQL 7.1.3 on OpenServer 5

I'm not an OpenServer guy. I'll forward to the PG Hackers List.

Hi Guys,

I am having trouble getting PostgreSQL 7.1.3 working with UNIX
domain sockets on OpenServer 5. I can start the postmaster with
the "-i" option to enable TCP/IP connections successfully.
However, the default UNIX domain socket connections fail with
the error message:

"psql: connectDBStart() -- connect() failed: Unknown error
Is the postmaster running locally
and accepting connections on Unix socket '/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432'?
createdb: database creation failed"

The named pipe referred to above has been created and the postmaster
should be accepting connetions on it:

-rw------- 1 postgres postgres 27 Jan 29 08:41 .s.PGSQL.5432.lock
prwxrwxrwx 1 postgres postgres 0 Jan 29 08:41 .s.PGSQL.5432

Have either of you heard or seen anything about PostgreSQL, UNIX
domain sockets and OpenServer ? I appreciate any assistance or
condolences you might provide.
