That looks like you are OS user "root" and type "psql" on the command line.
By default PostgreSQL will try to use the OS user name for database user and
database.
A wild guess: could it be that you mean to call "psql"
as OS user "pgsql" and not as "root"?

Ok, that seems to be a different problem.
Are there any odd things in the database log?
