Kill a postgresql session/connection

Question

How can I kill all my postgresql connections?

I\'m trying a rake db:drop but I get:

ERROR:  database \"database_name\" is being accessed

Remote scenario. But if you're trying to run tests in a rails app, and you get something like

"ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: PG::ObjectInUse: ERROR: database "myapp_test" is being accessed by other users DETAIL: There is 1 other session using the database."

Make sure you close pgAdmin or any other postgres GUI tools before running tests.
