Database server os = Ubuntu 16.04
client machine= Windows os 8.
we are not able to connect database server from pagAdmin which I have installed on my laptop (while its prompting for password).
Have you configured "pg_hba.conf" file in the server for remote access? IF not, you need to add following in the file
# vi /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
host all all 192.168.101.20/24 trust
192.168.101.20/24 is just an example, you need to write clients IP and port.

I am trying to access MYSQL DB on (Linux VMware Machine) through MySQL Workbench 8 on (Windows Machine), but getting this
Failed to Connect to MySQL at 192.168.100.135:3306 with user root
Host '192.168.xxx.x' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL Server
Notes:
--> Linux VM IP which mysql is installed: 192.168.100.135
--> Windows IP which I am trying to connect from: 192.168.xxx.x'
Error
This is the standard security configuration of MySQL, that just allows root connections from 127.0.0.1 and not from remote machines.
You can create a new user and grant permissions, as described in https://support.infrasightlabs.com/troubleshooting/host-is-not-allowed-to-connect-to-this-mysql-server/. Replace vScopeUserName with your username, and vScopeServerIP with your source IP address, which will be your Windows IP address in this case.
As the title suggest I'm trying to configure a postgresql server to be accessible remotely. I've followed many guides and viewed some of the other answers here however I'm still having trouble.
The details:
os, windows 10
postgresql version on host is 11.6
postgresql version on remote is 11.2 with anaconda install
I have changed the pg_hba.conf and postgresql.conf to allow for connections to the server.
More specifically I've added the line
host all all xxx.xx.x.0/0 trust
I can verify that the host is listening on local address 0.0.0.0:5432 via netstat.
I can ping the ip of the host from the remote, and I have set windows firewalls on the host to allow connection.
Yet I still recieve the following error when trying to access psql from the remote.
psql: could not connect to server: Connection timed out (0x0000274C/10060)
Is the server running on host "xxx.xx.x.144" and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?```
I had to double check the windows firewall permissions. The connection was enabled but the application was not set to allowed. It turns out a local user can enable connection but I needed the system admin to set the application executable to allowed by the windows fire wall.
I am trying to set up a server in a virtual machine using the Oracle VirtualBox. I use Ubuntu 18.04 LTS in the VirtualBox. I use PostgreSQL as my database.
In my Tomcat, I have a property file where I provide the database URL and password. I want the tomcat that is set up in the VirtualBox to be able to access a local database that is set up using PGAdmin in my Windows machine in which the VirtualBox is installed.
Is it possible to do that?
When connecting to a SQL server DB running on my host machine from a VM, I use the IP address to connect.
You can run ipconfig (or your OS's equivalent) to find the IP address of the machine serving the DB, then try to connect from your host machine via that IP address instead of the machine name.
There might be some VM-specific settings you need to tweak to allow network access between the VM and host, refer to this post for more info. Usually I have to set my VirtualBox network mode to bridged adapter.
I am running openerp(odoo) application from amazon cloud server using putty and it is ubuntu Headless(NO GUI) server. PostgreSQL is the database used for this application. Right now I am only able to access it in command mode as there is no gui in Putty. In Windows, I have installed pgadmin3. Is it possible to access it from here by configuring?
You can configure your security group to open up the postgres port accessible from your IP address (I would highly recommend the access to be limited that way). After that you can just point your GUI client the external IP address of your instance using the port where the service is running on.
I suggest you to use pgadmin gui tool to access postgres database.
You can set up an SSH tunnel in putty and use that to access the remote database with your local pgadmin3. This is a very good and secure way to do things.
First, in Putty (Connection / SSH / Tunnels) add a source port of your choice, 5000 for example. Then enter localhost:5432 for Destination (providing postgres is running on port 5432 on the server). Press Add and save your session. Next time you open your ssh connection with Putty, the tunnel will be active.
After this, set up a new connection in pgadmin3, Host: localhost and Port: 5000 (and your username and pasword, of course). Now, if the putty session is active, you should be able to connect.
In postgresql.conf file, find a line called
listen_addresses = 'localhost' and change it to '*'
Next in pg_hba.conf add this line in IPV4 local connections,
host all all (Your external ip address in CIDR format) trust
Finally restart the database using this command,sudo service postgresql restart
I have installed postgresql upon a vagrant ubuntu box and also companied control console with
sudo apt-get --assume-yes install pgadmin3
the tool is installed under /usr/bin
but I can not open pdadmin3 in the virtualbox due to the error
Error: Unable to initialize gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?
Could I possibly do this kind of thing in vagrant virtual box ? Or some work around
Run PgAdmin locally on your main desktop and connect to PostgreSQL on your Vagrant VM over TCP/IP.
The host can connect to guests if properly configured. You'll need to (a) ensure that Vagrant has suitable networking from host to guest, either using NAT and port forwards or using a virtual bridge; (b) ensure that PostgreSQL on the guest listens on all interfaces for TCP/IP connections using listen_addresses in postgresql.conf and (c) ensure that PostgreSQL on the guest is configured to allow connections from remote peers in pg_hba.conf.
Alternately, PgAdmin supports ssh tunnels. If you can ssh to the virtualbox you can configure PgAdmin to ssh to it too, then make a local PostgreSQL connection.
Personally I prefer to instead just use the psql command-line client for PostgreSQL directly on the VM. Way less hassle.
