Error: connect ECONNREFUSED when running migration (pg driver)

I am using postgresql and I get this error when I try to execute a migration:

[ERROR] Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:5432
    at Object.exports._errnoException (util.js:1022:11)
    at exports._exceptionWithHostPort (util.js:1045:20)
    at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:1087:14)

In my database.json I have this configuration:

{
  "dev": {
    "driver": "pg"
  },
  "pg": {
    "driver": "pg",
    "user": "test",
    "password": "test",
    "host": "postgres://localhost:5433",
    "database": "testdb",
    "schema": "public"
  }
}

I can execute sql code inside my app but I can’t using migrations

Probably the problem comes because the port I am using is different from which uses the package? I think it is a bit strange because I tried with Docker where I have the port 5432 and I get the same errors.

@wzrdtales I have solved the problem. As you said it was about the IP, as I am using docker-compose I did not specify the environment on my web service and I was trying to connect two containers with localhost.

Try this.

“pg”: { “driver”: “pg”, “user”: “test”, “host”: “localhost”, “port”: 5433, “database”: “testdb”, “schema”: “public” }
