Description

Hi,
I'm trying to use OSM Bright in TileMill using this tutorial.
https://www.mapbox.com/tilemill/docs/guides/osm-bright-mac-quickstart/

At the end of Step 3, when I open my project in TileMill, I have this message :

Postgis Plugin: Bad connection
Connection string: ' dbname=osm connect_timeout=4'
encountered during parsing of layer 'landuse_gen0' in Layer

And I'm unable to find what's going wrong...
Thank you for your help
Tonio

(TileMill Version 0.10.1 (v0.10.1-312-gfaf6910) / Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10.2).

Research direction

Start with Step 3 of the linked OSM Bright tutorial and the TileMill error for layer landuse_gen0. Check the PostgreSQL connection string and the TileMill/PostGIS setup; the issue is resolved when the project opens without the Bad connection error.
