[Workaround] Tablemanager / HUD not starting

netsrak · 10-18-2009, 07:14 AM

0. Make sure you have installed Beta 40
1. Note your database connection settings from the database management
2. Close Holdemmanager
3. Go to the folder config in the holdemmanager installation path
4. Rename the file holdemmanager.config to holdemmanager.config.corrupt
or sth. like that.
5. Under Vista make sure that UAC is switched off or check the
administrator settings for holdemmanager.exe, hmhud.exe and
dbcontrolpanel.exe under properties->compatibility
6. Restart Holdemmanager
7. Holdemmanager reinstalls and displays some messages and warnings
7a. A new holdemmanager.config file is generated
8. Reconfigure your database connection
9. After successful start reconfigure your Auto-import settings
10. Table manager should start again.

sigh, now, when I start HEM, it asks to repair it, and it says "the administrator set it so that you can't install"

Okay, whatever, this bullshit cost me my database + my computer's administrator settings are completely fucked.

pretty pissed off right now.

you didn't loose your database, you just need to reconnect. And it has nothing to do with your administrator settings.

That worked.

Although I also had to reconfigure my player preferences in HUD options.

Thanks for the speedy fix.

The recent xenocode issue has corrupted the holdemmanager.config files and prefs.xml files. You will want to check all important configuration settings and preferences. Make sure you take the time to Export any new custom HUD configs, so if it happens again you can just import the exported version.

i was running good for a change and HEM crapped out... "a connection was forced closed" then the postgresSQL screen came up with server name, etc... i searched for threads and found this 10-15 minutes ago... i renamed the file "holdemmanager.config.corrupt"... went to vista settings and turned off UAC... but HEM will not restart (beta 40). when i click the shortcut from desktop it cannot locate the user path... when i click HEM.exe from the hard drive, it says, "Could not find the Config\HoldemManager.config file. make sure you are running HEM from the correct directory."

then i get the 'Database Control Panel' popping up again...

where did i go wrong?

EN09 · 10-20-2009, 12:52 AM

if i go back and rename the config file (remove the 'corrupt') i get the following pop-up box: "The following error occurred when trying to open the database: Unable to read data from the transport connection: An exisiting connection was forcibly closed by the remote host"

then i click 'OK' and the Database Control Panel comes up again...

When I retard HEM (step 6), I get an error that says "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable."
