Hello Thomas,
Yes, it was just a "user error".
I'd compiled 9.5rc1 and was testing it out.
Weeks later I downloaded the deb binaries so as to have an "official"
version but overlooked pg_hba.conf changes.
Thus the JDBC connection failed.
So my understanding of this is that it looks up the IP address of
"localhost" and then trawls thru pg_hba.conf looking for an entry
containing that IP address, and if it exists, try the connection,
otherwise throw an error.
Cheers,
Robert
