Have you installed postgresql, which is one of the prequisites? The setup script is asking for the name of the postgres super user / password that would have been set up in the steps mentioned here

[SaraFio]

Yes, I am sorry I forget to specify before that I installed and checked all the prerequisite required

This issue should be resolved by #3892 , which includes two fixes:

• the default postgres setup on ubuntu 16.04 should be detected out of the box
• the (broken) prompt loop for providing the connection details manually should be fixed
