Hello,
I am build a django app that I am deploying through a CI/CD pipeline into my Azure VM. I already created a PostgreSQL database. When I deploy my docker container in my VM and try to connect to my database I get the following error :

django.db.utils.OperationalError: connection to server at “127.0.0.1”, port 5432 failed: Connection refused
Is the server running on that host and accepting TCP/IP connections?

Knowing that the that I get the following when running “netstat -an | grep 5432” :

Can you please help me, I looked for two days in all forums for a solution for this error, but still nothing worked !
Thanks in advance.

Hi! It’s hard to know without knowing the configuration, but it seems like a networking issue. You should check if the database is on the same virtual network as the application or if it is exposed to public networks.
