How to install Greenplum Database in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS?


I have tried installing it from my side but have failed. I had referred to the tutorial that was given by the link http://nixustechnologies.com/2014/03/install-greenplum-community-edition/ . I had tried installing it but the error that pops out is

could not connect to database postgres: 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 either help me getting it resolved or If you have any other alternative for installing Greenplum Database in Ubuntu 14.04 that please help me out.
