Bug reference:      4884

PostgreSQL version: 7.4.5
Operating system:   RedHat Enterprise 5.3
Description:        Misleading error message
Details:

The following error message occurs when the IP address is not present in the
pg_hba.conf.  The error message is misleading and should actually say
something to the effect, "Connection refused due to lack of access
permission".

java.io.IOException: An SQL exception occurred: ERROR: could not load
library "/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpostgis.so.0.9": libgeos.so.2: cannot open
