Description Stephen Gordon 2014-05-26 19:03:07 UTC

Title: Restoring a Backup to a Fresh Installation

Step 4 specifies:

"""
For local databases, add the two following lines immediately underneath the line starting with Local at the bottom of the file:

host    [database name]    [user name]    0.0.0.0/0  md5
host    [database name]    [user name]    ::0/0      md5
"""

What it doesn't mention is that rather than adding to the file these should replace the default directives:

"""
# IPv4 local connections:
host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          ident
# IPv6 local connections:
host    all         all         ::1/128               ident
"""

Otherwise it's not possible to connect to the database.

Comment 1 Stephen Gordon 2014-05-26 20:02:59 UTC

As an aside the string "Run the following command and follow the prompts to configure the Manager, selecting to manually configure the database when prompted:" doesn't seem to be accurate with regards to the most recent 3.3 rhevm-setup packages.

It auto-detects that the database is already there and handles it, no manual configuration or prompt is involved.

Comment 2 Andrew Dahms 2014-06-17 00:01:19 UTC

Fixed in 28277, 28243, 28279.
