db.login port parameter

[lucadelu]

It seems that PostgreSQL database library is not working correctly with port different from the standard 5432.

Following the steps I did

db.connect driver=pg database=grassdata

db.login driver=pg database=grassdata user=lucadelu port=5433 host=localhost
db.login -p

  pg|grassdata|lucadelu|||

cat /home/lucadelu/.grass7/dblogin

  pg|grassdata|lucadelu||localhost|5433

db.tables

  DBMI-PostgreSQL driver error:
  Connection failed.
  could not connect to server: No such file or directory
        Is the server running locally and accepting
        connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

What's the status of this bug ? Would be nice to have it fixed for 7.2.

I imagine that this is the same issue as #3167 which was fixed. Could you see if you still have this issue ?

Replying to mlennert:

Right, seems to be like that. I tested PG database cluster running on port 5433.

db.login dri=pg data=db port=5433
db.tables -p

Worked. Closing, feel free to re-open if needed.
