Still set to the default:
#listen_addresses = 'localhost' # what IP address(es) to listen on;
# comma-separated list of
addresses;
# defaults to 'localhost'; use '*'
for all
# (change requires restart)
#port = 5432 # (change requires restart)
I did change the Unix domain socket directories:
#unix_socket_directories = '/tmp' # comma-separated list of
directories
unix_socket_directories = '/tmp,/var/pgsql' # *****changed from default

worked, no problem. Connected to the database and allowed me to select
anything as expected.

Worked perfectly as a standalone PHP programme. Connected and retrieved a
record from the database.
