I have been reinstalling my laptop and was trying to install HEM but it said in the beginning "The following error
occurred when trying to open the database: Failed to establish a connection to '127.0.0.1'.

What shall I do to make it work??

Thanks

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
Try the manual installer from PostgreSQL: The world's most advanced open source database (http://www.postgresql.org)
