Thank you for your patience. Whilst this is the error one gets for a wrong
password, this is not the case here simply changing the status of the user
to superuser without touching the password allows the user to login,
removing superuser status the reverse.

This login error might be caused by the following, or something similar:-

"pg_upgrade already starts the postmaster with a -b option that disables
non-super-user logins:

/*
* Binary upgrades only allowed super-user connections
*/
if (IsBinaryUpgrade && !am_superuser)
{
ereport(FATAL,
(errcode(ERRCODE_INSUFFICIENT_PRIVILEGE),
errmsg("must be superuser to connect in binary upgrade
mode")));
} "

. This seems to be new in 9.1 .

pg_hba.conf is the standard

local all postgres peer
local all all peer
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
host all all ::1/128 md5
