This works for me:

psql redmine redmine -h localhost

The -h localhost part makes the difference.

You should have the postgres user name the same as your linux username It's easier than modifying "pg_hba.conf" file

It should not be necessary to modify pg_hba.conf for redmine. First check that your database role is configured correctly:

    su - postgres
    psql -d redmine -U redmine -h localhost
    <password challenge>

If the password is accepted, then the next step is to confirm that you have libopenssl-ruby installed.
