title: How to fix "Error: The server does not support SSL connections" when trying to access database in localhost?
body: <p>I am following Heroku's <a href="https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/getting-started-with-nodejs#provision-a-database" rel="noreferrer">node.js tutorial</a> to provision a Postgres database. 
  After creating a simple table and connecting to localhost:5000/db, I get an error saying "Error: The server does not support SSL connections".</p>
