Well?
Does the socket file exist?
Is PostgreSQL configured to use a different socket - perhaps in /tmp - in postgresql.conf?
I'm guessing you're using `psql' from your OS's packages, which expects to find the PostgreSQL socket in /var/run/postgresql/ , but a PostgreSQL server you installed yourself that puts its socket in /tmp or somewhere else.
Note that you should still be able to connect with `-H localhost' to use TCP/IP rather than unix domain sockets.
