Connection to local postgresql database fails after upgrade to Big Sur


I use IntelliJ IDEA's bundled database client (DataGrip) to manage my database connections, both local and remote. And using docker to connect to postgres with following settings:

    services:
  postgresql:
    image: postgres:11
    ports:
      - "5432:5432"
    expose:
      - "5432"
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_USER=$user
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=$pass
      - POSTGRES_DB=k$db

After upgrading from Catalina to Big Sur, connection to local db fails and it just shows a connection error message as follows:

    [08001] Connection to localhost:5432 refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections.
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused (Connection refused).

When I run docker-compose up, I get the following error:

Connecting to remote db's are not broken somehow, they work. Is there anyone came across this problem?


Solution

  • After Big Sur upgrade, I also had a warning whenever I open a new terminal:

        zsh compinit: insecure directories, run compaudit for list.
    Ignore insecure directories and continue [y] or abort compinit [n]?
    

    I did not think they are related but the solution to this problem, explained in this thread, also solved the main postgresql connection issue for me. But my computer keeps restarting occasionally and after this restart, I again get the main problem when I run docker-compose up inside IDE's terminal. I then manually restart and it works. Although not being a permanent soluiton, this solved my problem for now.
