No real idea, I'm afraid.  Can you connect with the psql client?  Try
$ psql -h orphee -U sourceforge sourceforge
and see what happens.  If it works (after asking for a password), then
the problem lies in SF configuration, otherwise it's in PostgreSQL
configuration (as installed by the SF package, probably).
