I've got my bacula box setup running Fedora Core 5 using the 
1.38.11-3.fc5.i386.rpms for bacula-posgresql, bacula-mtx, 
bacula-gconsole, and bacula-client. I have posgresql, bacula-dir, 
bacula-fd, and bacula-sd setup to run as services, but bacula-dir won't 
start.

When I do a "service bacula-dir start it returns (I'm typing this from 
one window to another, so typos are possible here):

Starting Bacula Director services: 01-Nov 22:46 bacula-dir: Fatal error: 
Could not open Catalog "MyCatalog", database "bacula".
01-Nov 22:46 bacula-dir: Fatal error: postgresgl.c:168 Unable to connect 
to PostgreSQL server.
Database=bacula User=bacula
It is probably not running or your password is incorrect.
01-Nov 22:46 bacula-dir ERROR TERMINATION
Please correct configuration file: /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf

So I notice there is a "create_postgresql_database script. Sounds like a 
good idea, but I get this:
psql: FATAL: role "root" does not exist
Creation of bacula database failes.

Okay, let's try grant_bacula_privileges:
psql: FATAL: database "bacula" does not exist
Error creating privileges.

Obviously there is some magic preliminary step I've overlooked in here 
to setup PostgreSQL, but I'm no expert on PostgreSQL (or any other 
database) and I haven't a clue where to start.
