Description
A question about docs/services/database.md:
When I run docker compose exec postgres psql -U nextcloud -d nextcloud, I get error: service "postgres" is not running.
When I change postgres to database-pgsql, I get error: FATAL: role "nextcloud" does not exist.
When I change -U nextcloud to -U postgres, I can connect to the database. And when I run select * from pg_user;, I get only one row with usename postgres.
Is my setup incorrect, or is it a typo in documentation?

Research direction
Start with docs/services/database.md and compare its docker-compose service name and psql credentials with the reported commands. Run the documented connection command in the development environment and verify the expected PostgreSQL role exists. Done means the documentation accurately describes the working service and user, or clearly explains the required setup.
