could not connect to server: Connection refused

Hi Team,

I have recently encountered this error with my postgres database. It seemed to start when I filled up my 2gb paid data quota. I have now upgraded my account to 5gb however this issue remains. The error message below is displayed if I try to start a posgres console or if I try to access my django site with debug=True.

psql: error: could not connect to server: Connection refused
        Is the server running on host "10.0.0.174" and accepting
        TCP/IP connections on port 12367?
Console closed.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Tim

On further investigation I have found this post which seems to be around the same or a similar issue. https://www.pythonanywhere.com/forums/topic/26804/

We reloaded the server for you and it should work now.

same for me now

how i can restart my postgres sever by myself?

I've restarted your postgres instance. Try and clear some data or increase your disk quota
