Postgre identification problem

[aemathien]

Hi there,

I've just bought a new pc w/ seven.
I try to move all my programs there.
I've save the database on my nas.
I've installed PGSQL and HM w/ combo package but it seems not to askme a password at this point.
No that I try to create a new database and move my handhistory there, when I try to connect to Postgres w/ the pgadmin tool, I don't know the password requested !

Could anyone help me ?

Thanks for all.

Nicolas

What is a 'nas'? How did you save your database? Did you create a .backup file? Did you save the \postgreSQL\8.x\data folder? Did you save your original/archived hands or export your database to text files?

Our combo installer does it all for you.

Please explain in detail what you are doing, because I think you are confused about how to rebuild your database.

when I try to connect to Postgres w/ the pgadmin tool, I don't know the password requested !

PT3's default name/password is - postgres/dbpass
HM's default name/password is - postgres/postgrespass

If that doesnt help:

1. Go to C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.x\data, move the 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

HM will accept any password now.

Thank you very much for your help

My thread was a bit confused but not my mind...
I only needed to know the password and you gave me.

Some day, I hope to have this. For now I just use an online backup service and external hard drive sync's for redundancy.
