Greetings! I am trying to use ActiveRecord in a non-Rails script to access a database, but I''m not doing something right apparently: require ''rubygems'' require ''active_record'' ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection( :adapter => "postgresql", :host => "myhost.org", :port => 1234, :username => "myuser", :password => "mypass", :database => "mydb" ) conn = ActiveRecord::Base.connection puts conn.active? When I try to run this code, I get an exception when trying to retrieve the connection: :~/ruby$ ruby activerecordtest.rb /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/readbytes.rb:23:in `readbytes'': End of file reached (EOFError) from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/message.rb:32:in `read'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/connection.rb:30:in `initialize'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/connection.rb:29:in `loop'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/connection.rb:29:in `initialize'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/postgres-compat.rb:23:in `new'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/postgres-compat.rb:23:in `initialize'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:24:in `connect'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:24:in `postgresql_connection'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 262:in `send'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 262:in `connection_without_query_cache='' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/query_cache.rb:54:in `connection='' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 230:in `retrieve_connection'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 78:in `connection'' from activerecordtest.rb:13 Anyone have any ideas why this isn''t working?

Yes, 1234 is not the actual port I''m using, I''ve obscured all information in the establish_connection method except that it is a postgresql DB that I''m trying to use. Anyway, the actual port that I am using is correct, for I am able to use this database server through an actual Rails project, and in my yml config, the port I have specified there is the same that I tried to use in this script, which did not work. Actually, here is the output if I use the incorrect port, with the same script: $ ruby activerecordtest.rb /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/postgres-pr/ connection.rb:138:in `initialize'': Connection refused - connect(2) (Errno::ECONNREFUSED) from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/connection.rb:138:in `new'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/connection.rb:138:in `establish_connection'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/connection.rb:25:in `initialize'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/postgres-compat.rb:23:in `new'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/postgres-pr-0.4.0/lib/ postgres-pr/postgres-compat.rb:23:in `initialize'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:24:in `connect'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:24:in `postgresql_connection'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 262:in `send'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 262:in `connection_without_query_cache='' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/query_cache.rb:54:in `connection='' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 230:in `retrieve_connection'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 78:in `connection'' from activerecordtest.rb:13 So as you can see, that is not the problem.
