connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:5432

[SPbb0451]

I followed the documentation and installed it, but I get an error about not being able to connect!
I didn't find a solution in the FAQ.

Assuming you are on Windows, here are some things you can do:

1. Make sure the postgresql service is running
   1. Search for services from the Windows search bar and open the Services app
   2. Find the service postgresql-x64-16 and ensure it's running. If it's missing, it means PostgreSQL has not been installed correctly.

2. Make sure the port is correct. The default port is 5432, maybe you changed it during the installation like on the screenshot in the installation instructions? (it's 5433)
   1. Open a terminal (cmd.exe)
   2. Type psql -h 127.0.0.1 -U postgres -p 5432 and press enter. If you have the "Connection refused" error try with the port 5433.
3. Re-install PostgreSQL and make sure to set the port to 5432 during the installation
