connecting to the data base

[Jaybear]

I tried to open HEM and it could not connect to the data dase. I have the database control panel up and it says

"HEM needs to know where to find the database. Please enter the details below and click on connect"

Is this a new or existing installation?

default info is:

server name: 127.0.0.1
port number: 5432
postgres
postgrespass


If you are having other connection errors, please be more specific. It may be firewall related.

First try a simple reboot.

If no help, try this:

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Stop Service

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Start Service

Add exceptions to the windows firewall, even if it is off. If you have a 3rd party firewall, uninstall it completely before installing HM/SQL - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afm...aspx?faqid=171
