Hi,

I just installed Windows 7. I also reinstalled postgresQL and restore my old database that I was using with Vista. Now when I try to log in my DB, I get this error message. Part of it is in french, don't know if any of you guys can read it but it says that the login got refused.

Under Windows 7 you must set \holdem manager\dbcontrolpanel.exe, holdemmanager.exe and hmhud.exe to be started as administrator. Run the windows explorer and navigate to your Holdemmanager installation directory. Right click the executable's and select "Run as admin" from the compatibility tab.

The secondary logon service is a standard windows service which is available on every windows computer. In the latest versions it is not started automatically. You need to start it via control panel > administrative tools > services. Starting it once should insure it works in the future also.

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


Which anti-virus and firewall do you use?

Now I can access to this database, I choose my default DB and when I click on start Holdem Manager, the program close automatically. I disabled UAC, I'm running all the 3 exe as administrator and I created exception in the windows firewall...
