Ran into similar symptoms, found that most utilities
(psql, for example) on the localhost use the Unix
Domain and work fine, but pgaccess uses TCP/IP.

My pg_hba.conf had a host statement to allow
TCP/IP, but postmaster did not have '-i' to enable
TCP/IP. I needed both to use pgaccess.

Hi List!

I love the look of the pgaccess gui BUT
upon trying to connect to my postgres server I get
the error:

Error trying to connect to database 'dbname' on host localhost

PostgreSQL error message. Connection to database failed.
could not connect to server: Connection refused
Is the server running on host localhost and accepting TCP/IP connections
on prt 5432?

I am also running unix odbc and DataManager for unixodbc without any
trouble. I run SuSE Linux 8 Pro ... any help is appreciated.
