Hi,
I've just installed postgresql onto my system but unable to successfully add new users and databases. I would receive a error message:
createuser: could not connect to database template1: FATAL user "root" does not exist
createdb: could not connect to database template1: FATAL user "root" does not exist
what is the error I am facing anyway?
Either try:
createuser -U postgres new_username
or, su to postgres:
su - postgres
and try again:
createuser new_username
