I did everything from the beginning:
1. createuser;
2. on a directory created on my home directory, I did "initdb.";
3. but something strange occurs:
$ postmaster -D .
LOG: could not bind IPv4 socket: Address already in use
HINT: Is another postmaster already running on port 5432? If not,
wait a few seconds and retry.
WARNING: could not create listen socket for "localhost"
FATAL: could not create any TCP/IP sockets
