OperationalError: FATAL:  role "ghrix" does not exist

I haven't recognize this error. One more thing , I haven't edit OpenERP server configuration file . And if I have to edit this file then what are those changes.

Thanks.

This is due to the fact that your user does not exists in your postgres database.

In a command prompt, as root:

su - postgres -c "createuser -s ghrix"

By default, the user for your postgresql server is 'postgres'. it's a specific user for this service.

If you install OpenERP in a custom directory, for example /home/USERA, the user will be "USERA", in this case, this user can't have access to the postgresql cluster. If you want to give a such access to your user, just create a role in postgresql via the createuser command and with the access of the 'postgres' user.

After that, you can specify the new user to OpenERP which will use it for the PostgreSQL connection.
