Hi Devrim,
Hi Kenichiro,
Thank you!

In my postgresql.conf there was a line
port = 6543
But it was commented out. I took the # out.

My listen_address was set as localhost (and also commented
out, which I decommented), but my PGHOST environment variable
was set as machine. I fixed PGHOST as localhost.
With these two fixes it is now working.
Thank you again.
