Postgresql isn't running on the server.

You need to start it before you can restore a database.

If you need info about how to do that,
- What operating system are you running?
- How did you install it (package like rpm or deb, or from source) ?

Firstly always cc the mailing list so others can offer suggestions about

What is the command you're running?
What is the exact error message you get ?
What shows in the log files?
