You need to create a database first and connect to it.
Best to do

i realize i need to start postmaster but all trys not successful
as from docs i can't tell how to get my template1 created
( in /usr/local/data......... )
as that is required apparantly for postmaster..........

[handiman(at)localhost /root]$ createdb handiman

Is the postmaster running at 'localhost'
and accepting connections on Unix socket '5432'?
createdb: database creation failed
