Answer 1

Here is how to proceed:

• Make sure you are connecting to the correct server. This may sound trivial, but is often the cause of problems.

• Set log_connections = on on the PostgreSQL server and check the PostgreSQL log file after the failed connection attempt. This should tell you more about the problem.

• Make sure that the correct line in pg_hba.conf is used. In recent PostgreSQL versions, the server log entry will tell you which line was used, which can help you to spot configuration issues in pg_hba.conf.

• Make sure that OpenSSL is of a reasonably recent version on the PostgreSQL server and you are using a recent JDBC driver. New SSL implementations will refuse to communicate with very old SSL implementation to avoid security flaws in the protocol. The PostgreSQL log line should give you a clue.
