Hi All,

I am trying to connect to porgresql database running in a host1 on 5499 port. I am trying to connect from host2, I am getting following error when I try to connect to that database.

DBI connect('dbname=dbname;host=hostname;port=5499','username',...) failed: Couldn't connect to hostname:xxxx/tcp: Operation now in progress at /soft/perl/5.18.1/lib/site_perl/5.18.1/DBD/PgPP.pm line 112.

sub connect_db(){
    my $datasource = "dbi:PgPP:dbname=dbname;port=5499;host=hostname";
+ 
    my $aut  = '';
    my $role = 'username'
   
    my $attr  = {'PrintError' =>1, 'RaiseError' =>1, 'AutoCommit' => 1
+ };
    my $dbh = DBI->connect($datasource,$role,$aut,$attr) or die $DBI::
+errstr;

    sleep(1);
    $dbh->disconnect();
}

I am able to connect to database via 'psql' command from host2.

I also check pg_hba.conf file, it has the entry for host2.

Update:

I am running this script on solaris 11

All is well. I learn by answering your questions...

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
