"" Error connecting to PostgreSQL database(host=, port=, dbname=, user='postgres', password=): 'could not connect to server: Connection timed out (0x0000274C/10060) ""

 

 

How do I get FMe server to connect to my PostgreSQL db stable every time ?

Are you accessing that database through other applications and if so, are you seeing similar timeouts then? If yes, it's most likely not an FME issue but a more general network issue.


It was specific for FME-server.

 

I recently realized that it was due to a firewall "issue". I had only made an opening for the ip address for one engine. Which made my workbenches time out, every time I used more than one engine.

 

Thanks for the quick respons, and sorry for my slow return.

I don't think that's actually in the troubleshooting guides and I feel it should be, @NatalieAtSafe, can you look into this please? It seems like a very easily overlooked thing, especially if you're adding on engines after the intial deployment.

Thanks, it sure took me a while to figure out.


Hello,

Do you have any details about this firewall issue or what did you do to solve it? I am having the same timeout problem when trying to connect to a Postgres database. The timeout is random and it seems to be triggered more often when there are multiple jobs in parallel (FMEServer on docker with 5 engines here)
