Hi everyone,
I'm hosting a Django application on PythonAnywhere and I need it to connect to an external PostgreSQL database hosted on Neon.tech.
However, when my app tries to connect, I get this error:
connection to server at "xxxxx.neon.tech", port 5432 failed: Connection refused
Is the server running on that host and accepting TCP/IP connections?
After checking the documentation, I understand that PythonAnywhere blocks outgoing connections to external database ports (like 5432) by default.
My question is, If I upgrade to a paid account, will I be able to connect to my Neon PostgreSQL database? And if so, do I need to request support to open outgoing connections to port 5432, or will it work automatically?
Thanks in advance!
