So i have an app that i want to upload to Heroku. My plan has always been to use Heroku, but i forgot to develop the application based on Postgres. So now i want to launch the app, and i've been trying to follow the Heroku tutorial (https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/sqlite3) to convert the Data Base to Postgres, but i'm getting this error after running "rake db:create" (as the tutorial tells you to do):

FATAL:  role "caiograco" não existe

"role "caiograco" não existe" means "role "caiograco" doesn't exist" in portuguese.

"caiograco" is my linux user name, i dont know why it's appearing in this error.

But even before it, i was getting this other error message:

could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

I've been trying to get a solution by myself all day long now, but can't figure out whats going on.

Any help will be appreciated.
