It seems you need to listen to the error and look at the pg-hpa.conf
file. It should be in the directory with your database. It has detailed
notes and examples in the comments. If you want to trust all localhost
connections, maybe something like this (from the pg-hba.conf examples):
local all all
trust
# IPv4-style local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255
trust
If that does not work, post the relevant part of your pg-hba.conf file.
