Does "pg_ctl status" indicate that the postmaster is running with
the "-i" switch? That is needed for the postmaster to accept TCP/IP
connections.
Then check the contents of your pg_hba.conf file in your $PGDATA
directory. It should have an entry for the host from which you're
connecting. For example, if you're running the Apache server on the
same machine as the database engine, a line like:
local all trust
would suffice.
