is this entry " testuid=pool_mode=session max_user_connections=2 "  under databases section ?

I am getting below an error message while making changes. 

 

2021-12-14 17:11:37.230 UTC [5023] ERROR skipping database user1 because of unknown parameter in connstring: max_user_connections

 

.

[databases]
;;postgres = host=localhost port=5432 dbname=postgres
postgres = host=localhost dbname=postgres

Works for me, with these relevant parameters:

postgres@tstudb01:/postgres/admin/pgb=> grep  "^[[:alpha:]]" pgbo_644401.ini

testuid=pool_mode=session max_user_connections=2

pool_mode = transaction

max_client_conn = 1000

reserve_pool_size = 50

reserve_pool_timeout = 5

max_user_connections = 300

server_connect_timeout = 15

server_login_retry = 1

client_idle_timeout = 0

client_login_timeout = 30

The idle processes are the only two that are actually connected…
