While creating everycheese database as per the instruction on section 18.5, met with a role error and this could not be resolved on ubuntu 20.04 LTS using the troubleshooting tips given at the end of the book.

createdb everycheese

Possible Solutions

• sudo in as postgres and give the role for your user (in my case it was 'ubuntu')
• restart postgresql
• run createdb everycheese

$ sudo -i -u postgres postgres@ubuntuBox:~$ psql postgres=# CREATE ROLE ubuntu WITH CREATEDB LOGIN; CREATE ROLE postgres=# \q $ exit $ logout $ sudo service postgresql restart $ sudo service postgresql status $ createdb everycheese
