I am trying to reach my database server from pgadmin but I keep getting this error
Unable to connect to server:
could not translate host name "dbname.xxxxx.eu-west-3.rds.amazonaws.com" to address: Unknown host
I followed these exact instructions https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER_ConnectToPostgreSQLInstance.html I could not find any solution to this specific problem

it is a DNS issue. Please try using a Google's dns server 8.8.8.8 and if this resolves to a working host.
