Hi,
This error means the psql client is not able to connect to the server
that (may or maynot) be running in the machine. Make sure that
the server is running. see if the process postmaster is running.
once the server is running the command to restore is
the command to run a sql script file is :
psql -U postgres -f pgdump.sql
(you missed the -f)
