Could you please try below steps to connect the PostgreSQL Database::


1. Please issue the following command in the run box ( start --> run )  as
follows:


runas /user:postgres cmd


This command opens command prompt as a postgres user.


2. Now connect the database using below command:


cd c:\postgresql\9.0\bin


psql.exe -d postgres -p 5432 -U postgres


Password:: [Provide postgres user assigned password at the time of
installation]
