1. Is the postmaster process running? Check using 'ps'.
2. Is the postmaster not listening on TCP? Check using 'netstat -lnp'.
Example of what you should see:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:5432 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 31693/postmaster
unix 0 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 68763 31693/postmaster /var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432
