It is hardly possible to tell with so little information.  When
describing a problem you need to tell us: which operating system, which
version of PostgreSQL, what front-end program you were using (I don't
recognise createdatabse as a program name), what you typed and how the
program responded.

Do you mean that you don't see anything when you type the password? That
is how things are supposed to work - password characters are not echoed
back to you; just press Return when you have entered it.

Do you mean that the password is not prompted for?  You need to set up
$PGDATA/pg_hba.conf to use the correct type of authentication for each
combination of user, connection and database.

Are you describing a hardware problem?  If so, we cannot help.

Something else?  You need to describe it better.  Since your English is
not very good, it might be helpful to capture the relevant part of a
session by cut-and-paste and post that.
