I tried using the postgres that comes with ubuntu (sudo apt-get
install postgresql).
With my app I kept getting invalid password. I went in to the
database sudo -u postgres database and did \password and set a
password, but I still got invalid password error from the app api
trying to make a connection.
I then went back to the source installed version and now the output is
correct. I'm not sure what changed. hmmm.
