I think you want:
local all all trust
host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust
It is possible I am wrong about when the format changed. I have been using
7.3 for a long time now. But the error message you got suggested that it
was looking for a match of connection method, database and user which is
what the newer version of the config file lists. Previously on;y connection
method and database were used.
