This should be an existing database. Here you would normally enter

On Debian the user postgres is not assigned a password and normally it
shouldn't have a password. Create a user with admin rights using the
convenience application createuser like this:
1) log in as root
2) su - postgres
3) createuser --superuser --pwprompt --encrypted Your_preferred_username
In the file pg_hba.conf the following line should be present:
host all all your_local_network/24 md5
your_local_network = the network address your server is member of.

Here you enter the password for the webcal admin user which is the one
you must login as when you want to administrate webcal users (create,
update, delete, and reset password). Username for this user is admin.
