I came to understand PG a bit better and then understood where I had
gone wrong. Thanks folks, but please ignore this email.
My most sincere apologies.

Hello!
Following this web page
<https://ubiq.co/database-blog/create-user-postgresql/>, I have tried
to create a new role/user, but to no avail.
After typing the following command : /*createuser --interactive
--pwprompt*/ I get the following questions:
Enter name of role to add: company_name
Enter password for new role: xxxxxxx
Enter it again: xxxxxxx
Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y
Than this error is displayed :
*/createuser: error: connection to server on socket
"/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" /**/
/**/failed: FATAL: role "my_debian_login_account_name" does not exist/*
How/ever, this issue is not really relevant/, per se, since I am able
to create roles once I log in PostgreSQL-15. Nonetheless, if the
service exist, why not usu it. If the services exist and is not
working, could it be that there is a problem that will come apparent
later on, when unlike now, it would be during a critical moment. Thus
the question, what can I do to resolve this issue?
Is there something I am missing?
Thanks
