昨天我安装了Postgres和pgAdminIII，一切正常，但重装后它停止工作。在rails server之后我收到了错误消息：
=> Booting Thin
=> Rails 3.2.13 application starting in development on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server

/home/home/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p448/gems/activerecord-3.2.13/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:1216:in `initialize': could not connect to server: Connection refused (PG::ConnectionBad)
Is the server running on host "localhost" (127.0.0.1) and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

我也尝试运行服务器Postgres：

我也不知道为什么，但现在rails server提出了这个错误：
=> Booting Thin
=> Rails 3.2.13 application starting in development on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server

请帮帮我！如果您需要更多信息 - 写入评论，我会更新我的问题

当我过去遇到这个问题时，我经常会做一些事情来让它运行起来，其中大多数看起来很简单，但我很健忘 -
有时我在切换到postgres后实际上没有创建数据库
bundle exec rake db:create
然后在那里得到我的所有表格 -
bundle exec rake db:migrate
其他时候我需要仔细检查并确保已安装PG gem
gem install pg

如果你在Mac上。然后尝试重新安装Postgresapp然后重新启动所有内容。确保再次导入数据库。
如果您使用的是Linux，请重新安装Postgres，然后重新启动所有内容。
