Hash: SHA1
Attempting to connect to database server as xxxxx...
error: No
database connection
What am I doing wrong?
(Please indicate which version you are using - Postgres support
is much further along in the 1.8 svn version than 1.7)
The connection to the database is not being made, due to one of
the settings being wrong (or the database not being started or
not existing). See if you can connect via the "psql" program from
the command line, using the same port and user (or superuser)
and password you are trying with the install. For example, the
default config settings would lead you to try this:
psql -h localhost -p 5432 -U wikiuser wikidb
That should give you a clearer error message as to why the connection
is failing. You may also prefer to connect as a superuser, so that
MediaWiki can create the accounts needed for you. Don't forget you
can ask on irc at
freenode.net on the channels #postgresql or #mediawiki
for possibly quicker help.
