I sorta had the same problem using pgAccess. The way to correct my problem
was to start the postmaster using the TCP/IP options.
I now use the following to start postmaster:
pg_ctl start -D /path to data -o -i
the -i option enables 'listening' on TCP ports.

Subject: [GENERAL] Newbie: problem Connecting to Server
I'm running Redhat Linux 8. I have registration to the Redhat Network so
I'm probably running the latest version of postgre sql available. I also
have Redhat Databse v2.1 installed, but whenever I try to start a session,
I get the following error message:
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"?
Please help me configure my system so that I can connect and begin to use
postgresql.
