The service starts but as soon as one does a request it fails to connect to the db and returns a rather cryptic error message: `{\"details\":\"missing \\\"=\\\" after \\\"postgres://db_owner@db-host:5432/db_name\\\" in connection info string\\n\",\"code\":\"\",\"message\":\"Connection error\"}`. \r\n\r\nAfter some discussion with @ruslantalpa on gitter he suggested that I use a different form of connection string. Turns out that passing the connection string like this `\"host=hostname user=username port=5432 dbname=dbname\"` to postgrest works fine.\r\n\r\nI would like to do a pull request to make other users aware of this detail for centos 6 builds but I am not sure where this should fit into the documentation. One possibility would be to add a small subsection or a note in https://github.com/begriffs/postgrest-docs/blob/master/docs/install/server.md#running-the-server.\r\n\r\nIf you would like me to add this to the docs please let me know where.\r\n\r\ncheers\r\nLeon"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/begriffs/postgrest-docs/issues/comments/231556313","html_url":"https://github.com/begriffs/postgrest-docs/issues/11#issuecomment-231556313","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/begriffs/postgrest-docs/issues/11","id":231556313,"user":{"login":"begriffs","id":911911,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/911911?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs","html_url":"https://github.com/begriffs","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/begriffs/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-07-09T21:16:25Z","updated_at":"2016-07-09T21:16:25Z","body":"(Just remembered postgrest doesn't support postgresql older than 9.3, so yeah the title of this issue is inaccurate)"}}
