Re: Dave can you help ?

Jim, please use the mailing list for support in future:
pgadmin-support(at)postgresql(dot)org

My guess is that the port number 8889 or the server 'localhost' is
incorrect. The ODBC driver appears to be connecting to something, but
not PostgreSQL. As you are running a Redhat system, it seems unlikely
that pgAdmin II would be running on the same machine as your database
:-)

Regards, Dave.

Dave any idea what is going on here ? I have never seen this
error before. I am running Linux V9 (redhat) and

postgres V7.3. I keep getting this error and cannot connect.
When I connect to my Linux V7.2 maching and

postgres V7.2 all works just fine.
