It doesn't matter how you installed it. How you *run* it matters. If the
postgresql processes run as user 'ravi' and so does Eclipse, then your
problem is the one in the article I already sent you a link to, and you
should follow those instructions.

No. If you read my explanation you would understand that this would just
make it worse, because you can't attach to a process under a different
user id.

That won't help.

By the way, it looks like you also posted this to Stack Overflow:

http://stackoverflow.com/q/27676836/398670

It's OK to do that, but *please mention you posted somewhere else too*
or preferably link to the relevant article in the mailing list archives.

Also, when replying to mail on a list, please reply-to-all.
