I am running my development on Ubuntu 11.10, and RubyMine
Here is my development settings for the database.yml: which RubyMine created for me
development:
adapter: postgresql
encoding: unicode
database: mydb_development
pool: 5
username: myuser
password:
when I try to run the app, I get this error below, it seems that I didn't create a 'project' user yet, but, how can I create a user and grant it a database in postgres ? if this is the problem, then, what is the recommended tool to use in Ubuntu for this task ? if this is not the problem, then, please advice.

If you installed postresql on your server then just host: localhost to database.yml, I usually throw it in around where it says pool: 5. Otherwise if it's not localhost definitely tell that app where to find its database.
development:
adapter: postgresql
encoding: unicode
database: kickrstack_development
host: localhost
pool: 5
username: kickrstack
password: secret
Make sure your user credentials are set correctly by creating a database and assigning ownership to your app's user to establish the connection. To create a new user in postgresql 9 run:
sudo -u postgres psql
set the postgresql user password if you haven't, it's just backslash password.
postgres=# \password
Create a new user and password and the user's new database:
postgres=# create user "guy_on_stackoverflow" with password 'keepitonthedl';
postgres=# create database "dcaclab_development" owner "guy_on_stackoverflow";
Now update your database.yml file after you've confirmed creating the database, user, password and set these privileges. Don't forget host: localhost.
