I initialized a database directory and it started fine. But when I tried to create user I got this error.
Can you tell what is wrong?
thanks
createuser --superuser --createdb --createrole -P postgres
Enter password for new role:
Enter it again:
createuser: could not connect to database postgres: server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
