Charles,
No. The postmaster is not running; trying to start it requires a password
which is also rejected.
Since I have the pg_dumpall data in a large .sql file I think the best
solution is for me to remove the 9.5.4 package completely, re-install from
the package tarball, run initdb, then start the postmaster and restore all
the databases in the cluster.
I'm thinking that without paying attention when I initially ran initdb I
used a commandline found on a web site (rather than just reading the man
page) and used the -W option which requires a password for everything. So
starting over from scratch _should_ remove all issues and successfully end
this thread.
Thanks,
Rich
