PostgreSQL version: 14.0
Operating system: Linux- Ubuntu
Description:
Hello,
I tried to install postgresql on Ubuntu 20 LTS.
I followed digital oceans docs and used the following for the
installation::
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install postgresql postgresql-contrib
This installed successfully when I tried to switch to postgres account
using
sudo su - postgres
The above worked.
But it throws the error when i try the command "psql"
psql: error: connection to server on socket
"/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"
failed: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting connections on that socket?
