This is a known issue, I had that too. Try to reinstall postgresql with a version number. Remove your postgres and reinstall it. For example:

sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.5

An other fix would be to create a softlink for example:

ln -s /tmp/pgsql.5432 /var/run/postgresql/pgsql.5432

I would suggest you to reinstall postgresql like I said in point 1.

Note: default port of postgresql is 5432
