I know it works

You can only conclude that it works from the server itself. Is your perl program also running & connecting from the server?

Your code works for me. That means probably that you have to tweak your pg_hba.conf:

Pg authentication docs (NOTE: change '/current/' to whatever pg version you use; 'current' means Pg version 9.0 - and yes, it has changed).

Oh wait, I see you have 8.4, so here: 8.4 Pg authentication docs

Keep in mind that the first matching line (in pg_hba.conf) will be used.

irc freenode #postgresql is often the quickest way to get postgres database problems solved, or at least, discussed. The DBD:Pg author(s) are often there too.

UPDATE: if you leave the $dsn 'host=' param away, connection will be done via unix sockets (as opposed to tcp/ip).

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
