Do you want the application "postgres" to accept incoming ne

Postby IDntEatFsh » Fri Jan 28, 2022 3:23 am

This popup appears when I restart my mac. I have the inbuilt firewall turned on and I have to leave it on. In smaller letters it then says "Clicking Deny may limit the application's behaviour. This setting can be changed in the Firewall pane of Security & Privacy preferences." screenshot attached.

[*]Does PT4 need incoming connections? If not, I guess I can reply deny?
[*]If PT4 doesn't need them, how can I set the postgres not to look for them in the first place?

PostgreSQL doesn't require that if it's only being accessed from the local machine so you can click 'Deny'.

By default PostgreSQL will not be looking for them as you would need to manually configure those network connections.

Is there any way to stop it asking every time I restart? I have set it to deny even in the firewall settings but it still asks after a reboot?

I don't know why that would be happening with the firewall. Please open a Support Ticket where one of our Mac technicians can assist further.
