Mageia forum

On all previous versions of Mageia and Postgres, i have been able to use phppgadmin without fiddling with the default configuration settings.
But now I cann't get phppgadmin to connect. Just starting it immediately throws an error "Connection refused" (so I don't even get the login screen). Googling refers to "you have to allow TCP/IP connections" in postgres.conf, but apart from setting the listen address, I don't find anything conclusive on this issue.
There seem to be three configs invollved
/etc/phppgadmin/config.inf.php
/var/lib/pgsql/data/postgres.conf
/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
But I am lost here.......

It might help if you add some details - like is postgres actually running and listening, is your webserver running ?

Apart from that, you could also use pgadmin4 as an alternative which does not require a webserver.

When entering in Firefox localhost/phppgadmin I get the login screen.. Entering a valid user and password gets me "Virtual Class - cannot instantiate".
Googling that one brings me to https://www.mageialinux-online.org/foru ... gresql.php , but I am not so comfortable with loading from github...
The solution will come around eventually.
Note: I got into this area because I could not save my gnucash data (from gnucash) to a postgres database, so it might have more ramifications than ths issue.

At doktor5000: yes, postgres and webserver are running, I can access my own internal website and I can run psql commands. And BTW, pgadmin3 ran as a separate application, but pgadmin4 does not connect either , and from its settings it displays, it refers to firefox, so i wonder.

Well, either you wait for it to be fixed as reported via https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28582 or you would need to apply the workaround from github.
And by the way, most programs source code comes from github these days ...
