[Abhishree Nagesh]

Hi,

Jira 7.13 and PostgreSql is 9.6 is installed on Centos 7.

when trying to connect jira to database , following error is displayed

Error connecting to database

The connection attempt failed.

connect timed out

That error usually means that the database server is not responding.

You'll need to debug it by checking that the database is running, listening on the right port and what it responds when you try to log in with a client.  The best option is to try to connect to it with psql (The command line client), both on the database server and from the Jira server.
