I use debezium cdc connect pg, and i build the pg 11 use by docker,the pg is run well. when i use debezium in kafka connector, it report:

Couldn't obtain encoding for database test

the curl is:

curl -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-type: application/json" -X POST http://localhost:8083/connectors/ -d '{
    "name": "debezium",
    "config": {
        "name": "debezium",
        "connector.class": "io.debezium.connector.postgresql.PostgresConnector",
        "tasks.max": "1",
        "database.hostname": "localhost",
        "database.port": "5432",
        "database.dbname": "test",
        "database.user": "pg",
        "database.password": "135790",
        "database.server.name": "ls",
        "table.whitelist": "public.test",
        "plugin.name": "pgoutput"
    }
}'

the kafka exception is:

it seems to me that the database named test either does not exist or is not visible by the user pg.

Couple of things that are inaccurate in your payload. Keep resolvable name instead of localhost. Secondly, place correct db namespace.

        "database.hostname": "FQDN",
        "database.server.name": "test_table_name",

It may be the case where, PostgreSQL host has not validated the authentication with pg user. It needs to have an entry into pg_hba.conf (on PostgreSQL server) and establish trust/auth from the client machine, i.e. Kafka-connector.

# host       DATABASE  USER  ADDRESS                       METHOD  [OPTIONS]
# hostssl    DATABASE  USER  ADDRESS                       METHOD  [OPTIONS]
host         test      pg    Kafka.connector.server.ip/32  md5
hostssl      test      pg    Kafka.connector.server.ip/32  md5

Then, restart the PostgreSQL server to get auth for pg user in effect, in my case pg_ctl reload.

As, the curl happens as a REST API calls, get Kafka-rest(8082) and Kafka-connect-rest(8083) ports added in the firewall settings of PostgreSQL server.

Yea, the message is differently misleading. In my case the problem was in closed ports between kafka-connect and database server.
