Re: [pgadmin-support] Error Message: ERROR: CREATE USER: permission denied

[Ben Trewern]

I don't think this is a pgAdmin problem.  You need to log in as a superuser 
account to create a user.  The superuser is usually called postgres in a 
standard PostgreSQL install although any user can be made a superuser (See 
ALTER USER <username> CREATEUSER).

Try
CREATE USER <username>;
via psql or the sql window in pgAdmin to see if that does it.
