Trying to get postgres to work with Lion. When I run rake:db create I get:
could not connect to server: Permission denied
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/var/pgsql_socket/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
There are a lot of SO topics on the same issue but none of solutions have worked for me. Here is what I have tried:
- Uninstalled & reinstalled the pg gem
- Installed postgres.app (when I am connected to the local server, pg is still not working)
- Updated paths file so that usr/local/bin is above usr/bin
- Changed permissions on var/pgsql_socket to read/write for everyone
What might be a hint is that when I run which psql the result is usr/bin/psql - I believe it is meant to be usr/local/bin/psql, but after editing my paths file directly, I'm not sure why it hasn't changed. Homebrew is also working completely fine for me (no paths issue there).
Any ideas?
EDIT - What's in my database.yml:
development:
adapter: postgresql
encoding: unicode
database: hubbed_development
pool: 5
username: hubbed
password:
host: localhost
test:
adapter: postgresql
encoding: unicode
database: hubbed_test
pool: 5
username: hubbed
password:
production:
adapter: postgresql
encoding: unicode
database: hubbed_production
pool: 5
username: hubbed
password:
EDIT - After running ps aux | grep postgres:

EDIT - saw that in postgress.app my username was 'postgres'. After updating my database.yml username to postgres and running bundle exec rake db:create:all, I am now getting the following error (different to before):
