问题
I just installed postgresql on my Mac OS Lion machine. I've already uninstalled and reinstalled the pg gems.
When I run psql I get the following error:
psql: 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"?
running which psql:/usr/local/bin/psql
I installed postgresql using homebrew
Here is a lsof results for postgres:

How do I resolve this error? Thanks!
回答1:
First thing to try:
psql -h localhost
It may be that the client and server are trying to use different file locations for the UNIX domain socket. You can avoid this by connecting over tcp/ip.
