I have been using SQL workbench to connect to redshift data. Suddenly I get this error 'Connection refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections' . I am not in the initial stages where I am trying to establish a connection. But have been using same credentials/ same host names same laptop etc and have been working fine until yesterday when I encountered this problem.
I have completed system updates, restarted my laptop several times and have started launching a new session but I still keep getting this error message.
Do any of you have a recommendation for me? what do I need to do?
