Asked by elvisron
I’ve have been trying setup a Scalelite load balancer. The load balancer connects to an external Postgres database. I have setup the managed database, made incoming traffic open to all. The server and the managed database are in the same VPC, N1. No matter what I do I get the error below when I run:
connection timed out is the server running running on host "0.0.0.0.0" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
Help will be really appreciated.

Hi there @elvisron,
The Managed Postgresql databases run on non-standard ports, you should not use the
5432port but instead use the port which is specified in your Managed database settings.I believe that the port which you should use is
25060.Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
