After installing dspace when I tried to connect it to the postgresql server it gave the following error. psql -U postgres -h localhost ( command used ) the error was psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused (0X0000274D/10061) Is the server running on host "localhost" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432? I searched for a solution on the net and I found that server might not be running or postgresql might not have been configured properly. As far as I know I've configured the postgresql properly..But I'm unable to find out how to start the pgsql server !!!
