I am reposting this question from Friday in hopes that it won't be lost 
across the weekend; and adding some additional clues about what my problems 
might be.

As I understand it, admin.pl is simply a symlink to login.pl.

The errors show up at line 90 of login.pl which reads:
>   require "$form{path}/$script";

and somehow at line 230 of User.pm, which reads:
>         my $dbh = DBI->connect($form->{dbconnect}, $form->{dbuser}, 
> $form->{dbpasswd}) or $form->dberror;

 From the page entitled:
SQL-Ledger Accounting / Database Administration,

I get the following error echo'd to the browser:
>Error!
>could not connect to server: No such file or directory

When I attempt to Create Dataset.

I have apparently created three users in my efforts to get past this step 
in the installation:  SQL-Ledger_Owner, postgres and hesco.  I have tried 
every possible combination of userIDs and passwords.

I am confused about why the user/members file contains both a dbpasswd and 
a password.  What is the significance of these two fields?  I recognize the 
dbpasswd for the two users I set up.  Is the other one an encrypted version 
of the first?  Or is that a plain text rendering of what I would need to 
enter to authenticate?  Which of these gets used how and when?

And what of that error I keep getting?  How can I create my Dataset, so I 
can build a Chart of Accounts and start importing my legacy data for the 
testing and training?
