I followed http://zetcode.com/db/postgresqlpythontutorial/.
I used:
sudo -u postgres createuser stressTest
this create the role, but also gave:
could not change directory to "/root": Permission denied
and I did not get the questions.
Then I used:
sudo -u postgres createdb stressTest -O stressTest
This gave also:
could not change directory to "/root": Permission denied
The database is created, but when I execute:
conn = psycopg2.connect(database = postgres_database, user = 'stressTest')
I get:
psycopg2.OperationalError: FATAL: Peer authentication failed for user
"stressTest"
What do I need to do to get things working?
