createConnection close api without throw error.

Issue Description

Expected Behavior

create a connection with postgres database.

Actual Behavior

Without make any change in database connection, the api, suddenly, exit and the code pass through the createConnection method.

Steps to Reproduce

require('dotenv').config();

import 'reflect-metadata';

import * as Server from './server';
import * as entities from './database';

import { Connection, createConnection } from 'typeorm';
import { DataConfig, getConfigs } from './configurations';

console.log(`Running enviroment ${process.env.NODE_ENV}`);

const initDatabase = async (dataConfig: DataConfig): Promise<Connection> => {
  try {
    const connection = await createConnection({
      type: 'postgres',
      host: dataConfig.host,
      port: dataConfig.port,
      username: dataConfig.username,
      password: dataConfig.password,
      database: dataConfig.database,
      entities: Object.keys(entities).map(key => entities[key]),
      logging: false,
    });

    return connection;
  } catch (err) {
    console.error('Error connection database: ', err.message);
    throw err;
  }
};

const start = async () => {
  try {
    const configs = getConfigs();
    console.log('Get configs successfully.');

    await initDatabase(configs.dataConfig);
    console.log('Database connected successfully.');

    const server = await Server.init(configs);
    await server.start();
    console.log('Server running at:', server.info.uri);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error('(1) Error starting server: ', err.message);
    throw err;
  }
};

start()
  .then(() => {
    console.log('Ready to receive requests!');
  })
  .catch(err => {
    console.error('(2) Error starting server: ', err);
    process.exit(1);
  });

Seems to be related to a specific (range) of pg / pg-connection-string. I was able to upgrade pg and that seemingly resolved the issue.

I have same problem recently. And, upgrade to “pg”: “8.3.3”, “typeorm”: “0.2.25”, works for me.
