@rajorshi Hi, thanks for your reply. I tried the first solution. The first command they said to do is this: sudo chown -R postgres:postgres /var/run/postgresql and I get the following chown: postgres: illegal group name What do I do now?

You should provide some info about /tmp dir, such as ls -al /tmp
