Hi
ive spent the last 5 hours trying to install holdemmanager. I cannot recall being more frustrated, ever.
My first problem was installing postgres. Then once this was done, holdem wouldnt connect to postgres. Now after reading probably over 100 threads in this forum and a few google searches that is sorted.
My latest problem is when i get to the create a new database section in the install. I get the error message: 22023 new encoding (sql_ascii) is incompatible with the encoding of the template database.
I cannot describe in words how frustrating this has been. I'm one of those people who, although ive used a computer, and some pretty advanced software programs, for over 10 years, i know nothing about the inner workings or even how to do some super simple things. Any time i need to use a program its for a specific task, i learn how to do said task and dont muck about testing what else the program is capable of.
I know the creators of this program must be highly intelligent and very computer savvy. Your support forum and faqs have lots and lots of info. However a lot of it explains things in a language made for computer savvy people. Some times, one simple line of instrction has taken me half an hour and several google searches just to understand and be able to do.
I really hope someone can help me. I am not confident however as one problem after another seems to arise when trying to install this software. Im truly amazed so many people have managed to install this themsselves and have it working.
