Connection intermittently made, rejects connection with password authentication failure notice

OSX 10.11.4 PG 9.4.8 Using pg module.

var pg = require('pg');
var conString = "postgres://postgres:REDACTED@localhost/testDb";

pg.connect(conString, function(err, client, done) {
  if(err) {
    return console.error('error fetching client from pool', err);
  }
  client.query('SELECT $1::int AS number', ['1'], function(err, result) {
    //call `done()` to release the client back to the pool 
    done();

    if(err) {
      return console.error('error running query', err);
    }
    console.log(result.rows[0].number);
    //output: 1 
  });
});

I get the following error:

error fetching client from pool { error: password authentication failed for user “postgres”

Then if I run this code with node - say - 10-15 times, it’ll work once out of those attempts.

I’ve reinstalled postgres and made sure the passwords match. I tried performing an alter user for the password. I tried killing all open connections with pg_terminate_backend(pid). Still fails. Any help would be appreciated. Everything was working with this prior to upgrading to El Capitan, is El Capitan not supported?

it work after adding this host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5 in pg_hba.conf file.

@FarhanAhmad212 This is very bad. You should try more secure way.
