Have you created a postgres user?
Does the user own the database?
Does the user have a password?
If not, make these things happen. A Google search will take you to the
Postgres manual pages.
If there is a user named "testuser" with a password "testword" then your
connection string should look like this:
db = DAL('postgres://testuser:testword@localhost:5432/testbank')
Note the 5432. That's the default postgres connection port.
Undo your changes to the dal code.
