Hello,
I have an issue when i tried to connect to newly created PostgreSQL managed DB from my laptop.
Several apps that i used:
- pgAdmin4 : “Connection timeout expired”
- psql : “failed: Connection timed out”
- PHPStorm : “The connection attempt failed.”
I have followed the instructions from https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/databases/postgresql/how-to/connect/
but none of the apps above is connected to db.
PG Version : v15
DC : SGP1

Hi there,
Did you enable trusted sources when you created the managed clusters?
If this is the case, make sure you’ve added your laptop’s IP address to the Trusted Sources section in the database settings. This allows external connections to the database.
You can get your IP by visiting this site here for example: https://ifconfig.io/
Then add your IP address to the Trusted Sources section in the database settings. And then try connecting again.
Let me know how it goes!
