  5. See error: psql: error: could not connect to server: Connection refused
    Is the server running locally and accepting
    connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

Sorry for your struggles @Gojak10, and thanks for reporting. This is not a coderoad issue and is a problem with the tutorial. I would recommend closing this issue and creating a new one on the freeCodeCamp repo

The best way to go through the tutorials at the moment is to do it all in one session. There are some potential issues that arise sometimes when closing and continuing a tutorial or using the reset button.
