Well, I investigated the cgi script using DBI and DBD::Pg that was
giving the error and discovered the connection string was the problem.
This is still curious, and I'd like to know why but I was able to fix
it.
Here's the old $dsn variable: ## this gave the "can't connect" error.
my $dsn = 'dbi:Pg:dbname=db_name;host=server_name';
This fixed the problem:
my $dsn = 'dbi:Pg:dbname=db_name';
So maybe there is something not quite right in my pg_hba.conf file. ??
thanks for any insights.
