Problem getting a connection with Postgres 8.0.3

Hello,

I’m having some problems connecting my jsp application using driver postgresql-8.0-312.jdbc3 to a local postgresql database server. The connection seems to be always refused whatever the user and/or database.

This is the code I wrote:

                        try

                        {

                                    Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");

                                    Connection db = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://192.168.8.2/cgm","cgm","esperanca");

for( SQLWarning warn = db.getWarnings(); warn != null; warn = warn.getNextWarning() )

                                    {

                                                System.out.println( "SQL Warning:" ) ;

                                                System.out.println( "State  : " + warn.getSQLState()  ) ;

                                                System.out.println( "Message: " + warn.getMessage()   ) ;

                                                System.out.println( "Error  : " + warn.getErrorCode() ) ;

                                    }

….

This is the error returned:

Message: Connection refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections.

Error  : 0
