I am able to ssh into my ubuntu server with a user name and password from the terminal. However, when I try to connect to the server using the same name and password via pgadmin, I am getting the following error:
could not connect to server: Operation timed out Is the server running on host “xx.xxx.xx.xxx” and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
Why am I able to connect through terminal but not pgadmin?
Answer
Because your firewall is blocking port 5432, maybe? If port 22 is open, and port 5432 is not, that would be why.
