The standard password is postgrespass.
1. Reboot your computer
2. If that doesn't help look for the hidden system file postmaster.pid in the postgresql data folder, delete it and reboot your computer again.
3. Check the postgresql service in the windows services (control panel->administration). Sometimes it helps to change the Logon As.. to "local system account"
4. Check our FAQ:

I delete the hidden file and now HM it is working again. Thanks for the help
Made format on my pc , restored my db played poker and suddenly today i am getting again cannot start error 127.0.0.1 . Made all the above nothing happen . Also re-install postgreSQL still nothing.

This is usually a firewall or windows update issue.
First try to reboot.
If no help, try this:
Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Stop Service
Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Start Service
If that doesnt help delete the \postgresql\8.x\data\postmaster.pid file, if you see it. And reboot.
If that doesn't help you will have to reinstall PostgreSQL completely
Turn on the secondary Logon. The secondary logon service is a standard windows service which is available on every windows computer. In the latest versions it is not started automatically. You need to start it via control panel > administrative tools > services. Starting it once should insure it works in the future also.
Install http://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/binary...l-8.2.22-1.zip just to check if that will run.

This looks like a bug in the latest update, that's all; the database does not get opened because hem is unable toconnect to it. There are all kinds of advice given and surprisingly some work to some people, but nothing works to me, thoigh there is a sticky to change that etc-file's a numbet to the bottom but what's bottom and the exacple has other there too than the number line and the text (locahost or something) that's supposed to be the only one out there. Also, saving just makes a notepad file there as it's opened with a notepad, and anyway I have a lot of those number lines with that text on that file already.

to check if you have a corrupted hosts file.
Try installing PostgreSQL 8.2 to port 5433.

Unable to connect 127.0.0.1
HEM version 1.12.09 windows XP
everything had been fine. Used it today and when tried again THE error.
Tried all including deleting Norton after adjusting firewall. Windows firewall is always off. I can't find windows defender. Is that on XP?
Deleted and reinstalled postgres after reinstalling Norton. pid file does not exist.
I did not try installing postgresSQL 8.2 as per last post. In the FAQ it says that you need to use the same version in order to use your database. If this is something to do does 8.3 need to be removed? What use is 8.2?
Would HEM2 make any difference?
Not being a computer expert I have followed the instructions as best I can for a few hours and have run out of walls upon which to bang my head.
I just checked the last sticky about defender and it looks ok. Local host 127.0.0.1
Again it was working fine, I closed HM and when I opened HM an hour later it wasn't. I did not turn off my computer, I believe there were no windows updates, Norton updates several times an hour but these are mostly definitions and again the problem continued after I uninstalled Norton.
HM2 will make no difference.
Install 8.2: http://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/binary...l-8.2.22-1.zip
to a different port. Connect to it. Reimport your hands.
The advantage of 8.2 is it will always run. (whereas 8.4/9.0 can sometimes stop working, or don't run at all)
