Did it say something like this?
psql: FATAL 1: Database "shiva" does not exist in the system catalog.
By default psql looks for a database named the same as your user ID.
If you want to use a database by a different name, then say
"psql different_name"
To get a list of what databases you have, use "psql -l"
To create a new database use the createdb command.
