Number Guessing Game - reopen the postgres shell problem

Backend Development
1

I had close connection without save the database. When I tried to reopen the project to recover the database, I got all the passing test that I had when I close it, but I can’t open th postgres shell, when I enter psql --username=freecodecamp --dbname=postgres the error message is:
psql: error: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket “/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432”?
Thanks

do you remember what you did to reopen the project? Did you just run Reopen or did you run Rebuild and Reopen?

HI
I did rebuild and reopen

unfortunately if you read the README.md file that was included with the rdb-alpha it said that using Rebuild and Reopen after the first time will erase everything.

I don’t know if there is a way to recover the db now.
