Are you trying to install it? Or open it, after installing it?

Vista? Turn off UAC - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=73

Also try uninstalling or setting exceptions in your firewall - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=171

What version of HM? 1.09 Beta 11 is linked in my Sig.

I am using windows xp. I dont think it is a problem with the postgresql. I get the same errors with all versions of HM I have tried.

Something strange with your computer / operating system.

Hey I just got it to work. Now my trial version is up! I really want to give HM a try before I consider purchasing it. Is there a way I can still try it out for the 15 days?

Unfortunately there is no way to extend the trial. You could try it on another PC, or :eek: reinstall windows. If you decide to purchase, you get 7 days for a full refund, for any reason.

I just bought it but I couldnt get the postreg thing to work. I have pokertracker 3 also. I open dbonctrol panel and try to connect to postgres but I get a message that says "user name/ and or password was not correct, would you like to have holdem manager configure the database to accept this login?" I click yes and I get another message that says "sorry unable to make this change"

I did get it to work when I uninstalled postgres and installed it in another directory but then PT3 couldn't connect to Postgres.

How do I connect with HM to the current database I have with PT3?

Also how/when do I receive my serial number for the HM I just purchased?

If you havent received your code in an email after a few hours, you can email sales@holdemmanager.net with your purchase details, and CC roygon@gmail.com to make sure it gets thru.

Do you have 2 installations of the same SQL? Did you uninstall the previous SQL installation? Did you delete the \data folder from that installation?



If you uninstalled the previous SQL, but still have the data folder, it is possible to reinstall the same version of SQL that your PT3 DB was created with, overtop of your \data folder. As long as you deselect the 'initialize databse cluster' you should be able to use your old data folder.

If you hadn't uninstalled yet, you could try a couple different passwords or else remove the need for a password altogether.

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

If that password isn't right, you can try using svcpass, or postgrespass.


If neither of those work, you can remove the need for a password by editing the pg_hba.conf file.

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL 8.3 > Configuration Files > Edit pg_hba.conf

The file should open with Notepad

Scroll to the bottom where you will see this code




# TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD

# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
# IPv6 local connections:
#host all all ::1/128 md5


You need to change the first 'md5' to 'trust', like this




# TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD

# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
# IPv6 local connections:
#host all all ::1/128 md5



Save, and close the file.

Click: Start > Programs > PostgreSQL 8.3 > Reload configuration

cool, got it working.

One problem i had with Pt3 was it didnt seperate 6max and Full ring tables on UB. I am having the same problem with HM.

How do I fix this?

It would separate the two on FT but not on UB where I play.
