I am using psql on Azure. While I am successfully able to connect it on CLI and using Python psycopg2 or other modules and library, I am facing issue connecting it to the pgadmin Web UI.
The process to connect to the Azure POSTGRES in pgadmin is as follows:
Click on Add New Server.
Provide Name under General tab.
Provide Host, Port, DB Name, Username, Password.
After clicking on Save, it always pops connection timeout error.
While with the above config I can connect to it in the python, create cursor and commit a query. Do we require additional settings to be done for connecting it to the pgadmin. I am new to cloud and not sure if there is some additional security checks like token access to be provided or something.
Please have a check that have you enabled your local public IP address in Postgres DB Firewall rules?
After I created the new DB and added my local public IP to Firewall rules, I can connect to DB by local pgAdmin successfully:
Configs:
Allow your IP address in Azure postgresDB Networking section. You can configure your VNET or firewall rules as needed.
Check if your organization allows your IP to be visible to Azure. In my case, I was able to connect only when I was not connected to organization VPN.
"Some network environments may not report the actual public-facing IP address needed to access your server. Contact your network administrator if adding your IP address does not allow access to your server."
Under settings. Click on Networking. you will find a link like '+ Add current client IP address ( 119.160.103.152 ) + Add 0.0.0.0 - 255.255.255.255' click on it and use 0.0.0.0 to allow all public ip addresses. Now try to connect.
enter image description here
Above answer is correct but look at he above link now option for public ip is under Network option.
Connected success fully after doing this.

I've had a postgres RDS launched on AWS
I have public access enabled
I also check the security group, inbound rules
Things look okay to me, but the issue here is that I cannot connect to the server, I got "unable to connect to the server, timeout expired" with the pgAmin4, using correct endpoint and port
Trying to debug, I realize when I deploy the postgres on a server (might be a VM), I have to modify the configuration file (pg_hba.conf), so I guess I have to do the same with RDS. Is that true with RDS?
I got the default option group named default:postgres-13, but I cannot modify the option.
Please help for clue.
Edited: correct a typo
I realize that exposing a RDS to public network never be a good practice. Keep it in a private subnet and use a bastion host inside the VPC to access the database instance.
And, ssh tunneling through the bastion host is considered as a good choice for access from public network.
I have instance on Google Cloud Platform and I'm trying to connect it to the pgAdmin 4.
So here is my postgresql.conf
So I've tried the following:
I've wrote the instance ip as well as the username and password.
And I get the following error:
I've added my IP Address on cloud instance, but this didn't help as well.
Is there something else what I can try?
Posting this as a community wiki as this is based on the comments shared by #AdrianKlaver:
Given that you get a timeout expired error, which generally means a firewall blocked the connection, this is likely to be an issue on the port 5432 not being open to external access, so if you change that this might work.
NOTE: Just remember that you once you do this you will have opened the database to public access as determined by the IP's you allow in. Make sure your pg_hba.conf and role security are sufficient to deal with this. You can find more information on how to set this up by following both of this documenation links for Client Auth and to Create Roles
I have created a CloudSQL instance which was part of a VPC I have created.
I'm able to connect to this CloudSQL using CloudSQL Proxy service. But I'm unable to connect to this instance using public IP of the instance though I added the firewall rule to this VPC.
The error I'm getting:
Unable to connect to host <public-ip-of-cloudsql>, or the request timed out.
Be sure that the address is correct and that you have the necessary privileges, or try increasing the connection timeout (currently 10 seconds).
MySQL said:
Can't connect to MySQL server on '<public-ip-of-cloudsql>' (4)
Following is the firewall rule I added and provided my home IP address in the blocked out area.
Please let me know if I'm missing something. I can provide more details if needed.
These are the steps you should follow in order to connect to Cloud SQL using the public IP:
Created a Cloud SQL instance, including configuring the default user.
Assuming you use a local client:
2.Install the client.
3.Configure access to your Cloud SQL instance.
4.Connect to your Cloud SQL instance.
You can find a detailed explanation here: Connecting MySQL client using public IP
If you are using the Cloud SQL proxy to connect via public ip, it requires port 3307 to be open to the address.
If you aren't using the Cloud SQL proxy to connect via public ip, you need to authorize your external IP.
I was able to connect CloudSQL which is part of a VPC by just adding the client IP address as Authorized networks.
It's weird, I tried many times before but couldn't succeed. It is working now.
Thanks, guys for answers.
I followed the aws tutorial found here.
Everything went smoothly up until connecting to the postgresql instance via pgadmin.
I entered the appropriate user/pw info and copy/pasted the address of the db appropriately.
The port is indeed 5432 on my aws dashboard.
I am receiving the following error message:
Server doesn't listen
The server doesn't accept connections: the connection library reports
could not connect to server: Operation timed out Is the server running on host "my_database_name.some_stuff.us-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com" (52.10.228.18) and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
If you encounter this message, please check if the server you're trying to contact is actually running PostgreSQL on the given port. Test if you have network connectivity from your client to the server host using ping or equivalent tools. Is your network / VPN / SSH tunnel / firewall configured correctly?
For security reasons, PostgreSQL does not listen on all available IP addresses on the server machine initially. In order to access the server over the network, you need to enable listening on the address first.
For PostgreSQL servers starting with version 8.0, this is controlled using the "listen_addresses" parameter in the postgresql.conf file. Here, you can enter a list of IP addresses the server should listen on, or simply use '*' to listen on all available IP addresses. For earlier servers (Version 7.3 or 7.4), you'll need to set the "tcpip_socket" parameter to 'true'.
You can use the postgresql.conf editor that is built into pgAdmin III to edit the postgresql.conf configuration file. After changing this file, you need to restart the server process to make the setting effective.
If you double-checked your configuration but still get this error message, it's still unlikely that you encounter a fatal PostgreSQL misbehaviour. You probably have some low level network connectivity problems (e.g. firewall configuration). Please check this thoroughly before reporting a bug to the PostgreSQL community.
Step 1
You are getting the same dialog I was seeing above. Crap!
Step 2
Go to your RDS instances
Step 3
Go to your security groups
Step 4
If your account was like mine you see this text:
Your account does not support the EC2-Classic Platform in this region.
DB Security Groups are only needed when the EC2-Classic Platform is supported.
Instead, use VPC Security Groups to control access to your DB Instances.
Go to the EC2 Console to view and manage your VPC Security Groups.
For more information, see AWS Documentation on Supported Platforms and Using RDS in VPC.
Step 5 Go back and check your RDS security group name (RDS->instances right click your instance). You will see something like Security GroupsList of VPC Security Groups associated with this DB Instance.
You will see something like:
default (sg-********) ( active )
Step 6 In your VPC security groups find your sg-******** that matches your database. Right click that. Edit inbound/outbound rules to add postgresql.
Try to connect again.
This solved my problem.
If this does not solve your problem I am very sorry, but I hope this documentation brings me some debugging karma.
go to AWS services in security group click on the security group id . from the "actions" button click on "edit inbound roles" and then change the "source" to "my ip"
The past similar questions have been related to mysql.
But this question is about using Google Cloud SQL, project name and access control, 1. set root password; then, 2. enter network IP.
From mysql workbench, "connect" command results in "access denied for user "root" nnn.nnn.nn.nnn (using password:YES).
Please help. I must be doing something wrong!
Your help much appreciated!!!
please double check that you enabled root password and that password is correct or try to change password.
If you get that error it means that your client (Mysql Workbech) can reach the SQL instance so networking and firewall rules are OK and even Cloud SQL access control is correctly set-up to receive request from your remote client IP otherwise you would receive a 'Lost connection at Mysql server' error.
Check e.g via whatismyipaddress.com that your client IP is not changing (Dynamic IP) and it is exactly the one you authorized in Cloud SQL access control.
Sincerely,
Paolo
