Ezequias,

1. Reply to the list, please.
2. Don't top post, please.
3. Do not change the subject line, please.




You need to have two accounts, one for the system, to start the 
postmaster and of course on as the database super user, which we are 
talking about.

Did you explicitely change the password for the database super user 
"postgres"?

Ben
