mpmap nav tab not working

Postby KeithHadden » Tue Sep 30, 2014 3:04 pm

This has been happening for a few days now.

When going to the nav section of mpmap and attempting any command the following error is displayed:-

Database error: "Connection to database "flightgear" couldn't be established", errno: DBI connect('dbname=flightgear','fgmap',...) failed: could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?, errmsg:


This happens across all mpservers

Thanking you in advance

This message also appears to me, I thought it might be some error in my OS Windows 64 bits.

Looking at the info about the map server, the navaids are loaded into a Postgres database for querying by the mpmap. It looks like the database has gone down and needs starting.

I have just mailed the maintainer about the problem (the mail address can be found by following links in the about tab).

Hi all,

Yup, all my fault. There was an upgrade to the server and I didn't realize the database didn't come up by itself. It should work again now.

Thanks all for the heads up, and thanks John for e-mailing me too.
