Dear my friends....
I am still new in PostgreSQL. Usually I use MySQL on OpenSuSE.
I just have installed postgres with: "zypper install postgresql-server". The installation looked OK.
As post-installation process, I've done: " sussy:~ # rcpostgresql status Checking for PostgreSQL: running sussy:~ # su postgres postgres@sussy:/root> createuser -D -p ricky could not change directory to "/root" Enter name of role to add: ricky Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y createuser: could not connect to database postgres: could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.0"? postgres@sussy:/root> ".
Why can I not connect to my Postgres?
Please tell me. Give me a first hint and this small step for me to getting start to use postgres.
Thank you very much in advance.

Did you do this to see if postgres is running. ps ax | grep post You should see something like this... 32028 ? Ss 1:18 postgres: writer process 32029 ? Ss 0:48 postgres: wal writer process 32030 ? Ss 0:03 postgres: autovacuum launcher process 32031 ? Ss 1:50 postgres: stats collector process If not, then postgres didn't start correct -- ----------------------------------------- Discover it!
