In fact i had already installed PostgreSQL on mac os x Lion, recently i upgraded to mac os x mountain lion. And also switching to a brew install of Postgres. I don't why but it is more difficult, on Mountain Lion, than on Lion. And also far more difficult than on (X)Ubuntu 12.04. On Lion and Ubuntu i had only to change postgresql.conf and pg_hba.conf. But here with ML (Mountain Lion) the server is running but not accepting connection : $ psgrep postgres yt 47140 0,0 0,0 2444240 520 ??
