Hi Cesylyaa ,
You need a postgress connector.

I don't think this is the issue, as i connect to another Postgres database just fine.
While this Host name is a string of letters/numbers, the other one i connect to without any issues has its host name as an iP address.
Could that be it? Must my host name come as an iP address?
