HM2 database shared on lan

[Dirkvanb]

With HM1 i did these steps and it worked pretty well: http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questio...ver+a+Network+

Is it the same thing for HM2 ?

[Dirkvanb]

Ive tried the same thing for HM2, but i dssnt quite work like this.

So my question how can i share a DB between 2 PC's.

My desktop is always on but i like to play on my laptop sometimes as well, and would like to use the same DB as the desktop one.

HM2 stores data in a second location the 'parent/roaming' folder.

Default location for this is:

Windows 7: C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\HoldemManager\ Database

So you have to make sure both computers also access the same (network folder) location of this folder.

Ok so i just make a new database on each PC with the same name, on their local host 127.0.0.1
But then with the same shared folder, and thats it ?

How do i manage this:

1. PostgreSQL installed on a network server, accessible from all computers.

You don't have to install PostgreSQL on the network server.
Install PostgreSQL on both computers, with only the database (=/data folder) on a network.

Ive done this and ive improted some hands on PC1, but then they dont show up on PC2.
How long does it take for PC2 to also have acces to the hands ?

Or do i need to change a setting somewere to make it work ?

Did you put the parent folder on each as the FAQ says?
