hello

so i downloaded and installed HEM 1.08.04, installed PostgreSQL but in window "Initilize databse Cluster" where we choose Encoding Server i choose Win1252 but in Clinet part Win1250 becasue there wasnt 1252. then i create new databse and i saw this message:

"the following error occured when trying to open the databse: Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 91"

so i thought i did wrong with that encoding client soi uninstalled postgreSQL and now i choose Win1253 but when i click next i see this message:

"the specified data directory is not empty.
if u have an existing databse with the same major version number u do not need to initialize a databse cluster
if u have an existing database..."

so i dont know what to do. someone can help me ?

What country are you in? change the locale to USA or any west european country and you can choose WIN1252 on client side
