When try connecting to the PG database I got following error:

$ heroku pg:psql --app rf1
psql: could not connect to server: Operation timed out Is the server running on host "ec2-184-73-161-119.compute-1.amazonaws.com" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

How could I fix it? P.s: I am running on a OS X environment and have local pg installed.

Update:

heroku pg:info --app rf1
=== SHARED_DATABASE (DATABASE_URL)
Data Size: 312k

You need to be running one of Heroku's production databases or their new development 9.1 database to be able to connect to the DB from outside;
