    If you have issues with this installer please try the following before installing:
    1) Go to start > programs > accessories > click on command prompt
    (If your using Vista or Windows 7 and have UAC enabled you’ll need to do the following before clicking on command prompt: right-click on command prompt and chose run as administrator)
    2) In the dos window that appears type the following and press return:
    net user postgres /delete

    Please note if you get an error at this point and report it to us. Then proceed with the installation. If you receive any errors during installation please take a screenshot of the error and send to us.

    Alternatively you repeat steps 1 and 2 above and then install the versions below and see if they work and also note any errors you receive during installation:
    PostgreSQL 9.0, 8.4 or 8.3 - Download PostgreSQL | EnterpriseDB
    PostgreSQL 8.2 - PostgreSQL: Choose a Mirror

    And please look at this:


    I can’t connect to PostgreSQL
    This is usually a firewall or windows update issue and the following guide step by step:

    http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questio...rt+PostgreSQL+ - Can’t Connect / Failed to Start PostgreSQL

    PostgreSQL is not accepting my password
    1) Go to C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.x\data, move the pg_hba file to your Desktop and open it with notepad.
    2) Scroll to the bottom and change all md5 to trust. Save and close the file.
    3) Move the file back to the data folder.
    4) Restart the PostgreSQL service: Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services

    HM2 will accept any password now.

    Hi, at the 1st installation this was the error report: "An error occured executing the Microsoft VC++ runtime installer"
    the 2nd installation was OK.
