The user pgsql was not authorized to connect to the DBMS. First, you
need to understand that it is a job for your DBA. Talk with her/him.

In case you're the DBA, the default user name for the PostgreSQL
superuser on Debian is "postgres" so you probably need to modify the
Makefile and may be to configure the authentication (ph_hba.conf file
of PostgreSQL).
