  • Please refer my previous question, are you trying to connect on the same computer postgresql is installed on? Commented Jun 14, 2014 at 10:10
  • I just edited the services file and I actually found this line : esri_sde 5151/tcp #ArcSDE for PostgreSQL but when I checked in PostgreSQL I found that my port was 5432, so I changed that.. I've retested the database connection and yet I still have the same error :( Commented Jun 14, 2014 at 10:16

    I agree that you're lost. At this point you should uninstall all the software and start over again. Next time, do not change any port numbers from their defaults, and do not bother trying to install an ArcSDE service. All you were missing was a proper pg_hba.conf entry, which will probably involve whatever network you are on besides loopback (127.0.0.1). At this point, talking to Tech Support is strongly advised.
