I can open http://localhost/ledgersmb/admin.pl

I can create users (which subsequently are listed in the admin page) but get an error when saving , such as

Sounds like you are using some sort of password authentication (MD5, PAM, etc) and are supplying the wrong PostgreSQL user account password.
 

Error!

bin/login.pl:336: Access Denied!

I have messed up permissions somehow? - some guidance to correct would be greatly appreciated.


Most likely it is either wrong passwords in PostgreSQL (alter user foo with password 'bar') or a problem in your Pg_hba.conf setup (using PAM authentication or the like).  Without knowing more, it is impossible to say.  However, I would suggest looking up the section on authentiction in the PostgreSQL documentation.
