I had a spat of notice errors in my error.log (incidentally I did an update-upgrade on my debian woody distribution),
Error: Ns_PgOpenDb(postgres): Could not connect to localhost::serice0: FATAL: sorry, too many clients already
[19/Jun/2005:00:00:29][25208.196620][-sched:11-] Error: dbdrv: failed to open database 'postgres:localhost::service0'
[19/Jun/2005:00:00:29][25208.196620][-sched:11-] Error: could not allocate 1 handle from pool "pool2"
could not allocate 1 handle from pool "pool2"
etc...
I have modified pg_hba.conf as per your advice and so far so good.
would this be enough to show that my problem was the pg_hba.conf, or I need to look more into this ?
Thanks,
