Hi all!

This is my first to the list.

Using pgadmin4 I can't create a local server "timeot expired"
from debian buster terminal ask me to verify I'm allowed to connect to the unix domain socket /var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432


su

Password:

root@mycomputer:/home/me# su - postgres

postgres@mycomputer:~$ psql

psql: error: could not connect to server:

File o directory non esistente Verifica che il server locale sia in funzione e che accetti connessioni sul socket di dominio Unix "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"


I solved this problem with postgresql10 modifying a .conf file but file and directory names changed in postgresql 12

Can you help me?

Thank you in advance

First, verify that the server is running and listening:

- are there PostgreSQL processes?

- What is "port" and "unix_socket_directories" in "postgresql.conf"?

Then it would be interesting to know what exactly you entered in pgAdmin
to specify the connection.

I looked for postgres.conf but Dolphin couldn't find it

in pg admin 

create  --> server --> 
 name   Locale
 connection   
             host  localhost
             port   5432
             database  postgres
             username  postgres

How shall the poor creature find it if really it is called "postgresql.conf"?
