The role you have created is not allowed to log in. You have to give the role permission to log in.

One way to do this is to log in as the postgres user and update the role:

psql -U postgres

Once you are logged in, type:

ALTER ROLE "asunotest" WITH LOGIN;

Here's the documentation http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/sql-alterrole.html
