- What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?

Grafana v10.2.3. Deployed as an app service using docker

- **What** are you trying to achieve?  
I am trying to create postgres data source. I have given host url, database name, user and password. After clicking Save and Test, getting error “[sqleng.connectionError] failed to connect to server - please inspect Grafana server log for details”. and in the logs, I see this

logger=tsdb.postgres t=2024-02-29T05:06:00.51831736Z level=error msg=“Check health failed” error=“dial tcp :5432: connect: connection timed out”  
2024-02-29T05:06:00.520789906Z: [INFO] logger=tsdb.postgres t=2024-02-29T05:06:00.518877293Z level=error msg=“Query error” err=“dial tcp :5432: connect: connection timed out”

- **How** are you trying to achieve it?

- What happened?

- What did you **expect** to happen?

- Can you copy/paste the configuration(s) that you are having problems with?

- Did you receive any errors in the Grafana UI or in related logs? If so, please tell us **exactly** what they were.

- Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL?

Can someone please help me with this ?

Thanks

Is your Grafana in a docker? If so, you need to do this: host.docker.internal:5432
