Hey,
    I'm a first time postgres user.  I was able to access yesterday a database I had loaded that same day until the system was shut down without warning.  Now I get the error:

createdb: could not connect to database postgres: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

 I reinstalled the database with no difference, does anyone know how I may resolve the issue?  Thanks in advance.

JD
