Hello,

congratulations on the work you do.

I have WAPT server 1.6.2.7 on a CentOS VM.
I would like to connect to the database to run queries.
Is this possible with DBeaver or PgAdmin?

Thanks,
Fred

For security reasons, the PostgreSQL database only listens on localhost and via Unix sockets. The procedure is the same as for any PostgreSQL database: you need to modify the postgresql.conf file to listen on the different interfaces, and the pb_hba.conf file to list the IP addresses that are authorized to connect [1]. WAPT's unique feature is that it uses identity-based authentication via Unix sockets. Therefore, there is no default password; you will need to add one.

Sincerely,

Denis
