Hey,

I cannot open HM. I get the following error: "the following error occurred when trying to open the database: Kan geen gegevens lezen uit de transportverbinding: De externe host heeft een verbinding verbroken"

My translation for the dutch part: Cannot read data from transportconnection. The external host has terminated the connection.

I opened it today and it was fine. I was experimenting with it because I have 2 computers and I want 1 database for the 2 computers. On pokernews.com there was a advice of going to Database management and then export hands. I went to database management and from then the problem occured (so I did nothing further). It said also something of informing you and send some file.

What to do?

This is usually a firewall or windows update issue.

First try to delete the \postgresql\8.x\data\postmaster.pid file, if you see it, and reboot.

If no help, try this:

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Stop Service

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Start Service

Add exceptions to the windows firewall, even if it is off. If you have a 3rd party firewall, do the equivalent or uninstall it temporarily - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=171

Please try following all of these FAQs, step by step:

1) http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=34
2) reinstall the same version of postgresql, using the same \data folder - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=177
3) http://www.holdemmanager.net/forum/showthread.php?t=8261

If that doesn't help you will probably have to reinstall PostgreSQL completely and reimport your hands.
