PostgreSQL: Role postgres does not exist?

Question

I have install Postgres 9.3 with pgAdmin form EnterpriseDB on ubuntu,

that is working fine . i create user name is postgres and password is also postgres .

then install odoo 8 from bitnami after that my postgres 9.3 (previous) server is not connecting and giving following error :

PostgreSQL: Role postgres does not exist

Answer 1

This type of error came when System User don't have access rights to start Odoo server/ Postgres server.

To avoid those kind issue, we should alter role for System User.

Try with this:

1. Open Terminal and fire this command => sudo su postgres
2. Enter password for postgres System user
3. createuser postgres -s
4. psql template1
5. alter role postgres with password 'postgres';
6. \q
7. Restart Odoo server
