This is caused by the connection refused exception to your standalone postgres database. It means the Ambari Server can't connect to it. You can check the settings in ambari.properties to see if any of them are wrong:
grep jdbc /etc/ambari-server/conf/ambari.properties And the adjust any which are wrong (database host, port, etc). You should also try psql to ensure that you can communicate with the database from this host outside of Ambari Server.
