Hello,
I'm trying to install decidim following the nice step-by-step procedure described at
https://github.com/Platoniq/decidim-install/blob/master/decidim-bionic.md
but I am stuck in the middle :-(
At the point where "Decidim should be able to start working", I have a problem with the following command:
$ bin/rails db:create RAILS_ENV=production
which triggers the following output:
=== beginning output

Is the server running on host "localhost" (::1) and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

Couldn't create 'decidim_prod' database. Please check your configuration.

I must say that I have never come across postgres before and I have no knowledge of it.
I have been applying all kinds of suggestions found on postgres forums but nothing seems to work: any suggestions?
I have installed postgreSQL 10.9 on an Ubuntu 18.04 server (installed from scratch).
Thank you for your help.
Cheers,
JP
