[Bigjob-users] Reg: An issue while running a test Bigjob

[Muralidhar Chouhan]

Dear Pradeep,

I have tried the fix mentioned in the website, even then it gives me same
error. Please confirm if the *host *parameter in the below line needs to be
unchanged? please find the attachment of my *saga_adaptor_default_advert.ini
*file.

dbconnect = dbname=advertdb;host=<your hostname
here>;port=5432;user=SAGA;password=SAGA_client


*Regards,*
Muralidhar Chouhan
