The userid needs more than “normal access”. It needs “create” and “drop” for 
*all* entities, database on down, but the error message indicates that you’re 
not getting that far. Look in the database server logs for messages documented 
in https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/client-authentication-problems.html to 
find out why.

Note that GnuCash supports only plaintext password authentication 
(https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/auth-password.html) so make sure that your 
server is set up for that and that you’ve assigned a password to the user 
you’re logging in as.

BTW, your screenshot shows you trying to connect using the postgres userid. 
That’s the equivalent to signing in to a Unix computer as root: A bad idea.
