Hello,

I have a recurrent issue with HM. I play on FTP and PS on a Macbook with dual boot (Mac OS and Windows XP). My mac crashed a few days ago and my hud continued working fine, but when I went to see the "cash games" section, nothing was updated. The hands were importing fine though and were archived in the HM archive folder.

I had had a few problems already, so I uninstalled HM, postgreSQL and even PS and FT. I deleted all the files left and then I downloaded and installed everything again (HM beta 23a version).

Everything worked fine. Until my mac crashed again. Now I've got the same problem again.

Also, I don't know if this may be the problem, but as I have dual boot, I cannot install postgreSQL using the link you provide (the partition for dual boot is FAT32, not NTFS),
(http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?topicid=35&faqid=176)
so the postgreSQL version that is installed is the one you get when you install PT3.

Do you have any idea where it might come from?

Thanks

For the crashing/hands issue I will probably need to ask netsrak or fabio for assistance.

For the FAT32 issue, this is our standard reply:

You have 2 possibilities:
1. convert your partition to ntfs, which is the standard filesystem on actual PC systems: http://www.google.de/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.aumha.org%2Fwin5%2Fa%2Fntfscv t.php&ei=ag5BSsirBJLb-Qa-lIDFCA&usg=AFQjCNG90hK_WFmx4O46Qmmvt91mq7sauw&sig2=WuLoscRaBd4MFgty6hp6aA
or
2. Install postgresql on FAT. This is not the standard installation, see: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs.FAQ_windows.html#2.4

Thanks for your quick reply. I'll try to install postgresql on FAT first. I'll see if it helps.

Do you get ANY errors when you run a VACUUM in pgAdmin?
If yes, for example (a "index xxxxx is corrupt error") try to reindex the index.
If you still get errors, you have a corrupt database (and will need to reimport your hands in a NEW database or restore a recent non-corrupt BACKUP)

I ran a vacuum in PGAdmin and got the following error:

ERROR: invalid page header in block 11045 of relation "handhistories"

I tried to reindex and got the same error message.

I created a new database and everything works fine again.
I guess I'll have to do this everytime my computer crashes.

Thanks for your help!

You should backup your database regularly and be aware of a harddisk crash in the nearer future.
