Good, so you're definitely on the right track.

Right. So you definitely need to correct your pg_hba.conf file. You
might also want to tweak your postgresql.conf file to direct the log
entries into a log file so that you can have a better chance of
figuring out what's going on.

I'm afraid there's not much use in going further until you have
PostgreSQL figured out. If this is a totally clean system (as in, it's
a clean install of Ubuntu dedicated to installing Evergreen on it),
you might want to simply uninstall PostgreSQL, wipe the existing
config files (like pg_hba.conf), and reinstall it; then save the
config files before you start modifying them for the Evergreen install
bits.

An alternative, of course, is to point at a PostgreSQL server on
another machine - but that means that you'll have to figure out the
right pg_hba.conf changes to enable authentication to the PostgreSQL
server from a remote machine. So either way, you've got some wrestling
to do with PostgreSQL (and I'll freely admit that the pg_hba.conf
piece is one of my least favourite parts of an otherwise superb
database).
