Hi,

Having a time trying to connect to a PostGreSQL database on Ubuntu 18.04 server.

Here is my:
postgresql.conf file :“”“”
port=5432
listen_addresses=’*’ “”“

pg_hba.cong: ”“”
host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5
“”“

firewall is currently disabled

here is the output when I did the command (saw in another thread to do this…): ”“”
sudo netstat -ltpnActive Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name

“”“”
I have restarted postgresql each time using the command ‘sudo service postgresql restart’.

I have tried to access the db using the python library psycopg2 on macOS and getting this error “”“
could not connect to server: Connection refused
Is the server running on host ”<ip_address>“ and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
”“”“

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance!
