Getting "Connection refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections" when connecting via jdbc
Hi, I am using JDBC to connect to a Postgres DB. I am calling a method that connects to the DB twice. It connects once to do a select statement and another time to do an insert statement. I am checking to see if the a session_id exists and if it doesn't I am adding the session_id into the DB. It does the initial select fine, but when I try to connect the second time to do the insert I am getting the error in the title above. Here is what my code looks like. Can anyone help me out with resolving this?
private void initialInsert(String sessionId) {
try {
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
log.info("Class Not Found: " + e.getMessage());
}
log.info("Entering the initial insert");
String sessionIdFromDB = "";
String url = "jdbc:postgresql://10.233.52.71:5432/CustomersLikeYou";
Properties props = new Properties();
props.setProperty("user", "itrd");
props.setProperty("password", "itrd");
Connection conn = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
try {
log.info("Entering select");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, props);
Statement statement = conn.createStatement();
rs = statement.executeQuery(
"select session_id from public.individual_customer where session_id = '" + sessionId + "'");
log.info("Succeful select");
while (rs.next()) {
if (StringUtils.isNotEmpty(rs.getString("session_id"))) {
sessionIdFromDB = rs.getString("session_id");
}
}
} catch (SQLException e) {
log.info(e.getMessage());
} finally {
if (conn != null) {
try {
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
log.info(e.getMessage());
}
}
if (rs != null) {
try {
rs.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
log.info(e.getMessage());
}
}
}
try {
log.info("Entering insert");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, props);
Statement statement = conn.createStatement();
if (StringUtils.isEmpty(sessionIdFromDB)) {
// insert session id
statement.executeUpdate(
"insert into public.individual_customer (session_id) values '" + sessionId + "'");
}
log.info("Successful insert");
} catch (SQLException e) {
log.info(e.getMessage());
} finally {
if (conn != null) {
try {
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
log.info(e.getMessage());
}
}
if (rs != null) {
try {
rs.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
log.info(e.getMessage());
}
}
}
}

Are you certain that the first request is succeeding?
That error is pretty clear. It's saying that when you ask to connect on 10.233.52.71:5432 you're getting no response.
So either:
that's the wrong IP, or
the wrong port, or
the db server is not running there or
the firewall is not configured to accept requests there
Generally those things are all pretty static and wouldn't come and go between requests.

It connects once to do a select statement and another time to do an insert statement.You don't need to do that. In versions >= 9.5 you can use UPSERT and for earlier you could at least do INSERT INTO foo WHERE NOT EXISTS. Either way, you should be using PreparedStatement. If you can use a reasonably recent version of Java, you can get rid of all those nasty boilerplate close blocks using try-with-resources too
