Hello,

I spend 3 hours trying to install Holdem Manager using all the resources available on internet but I still get the same error message during the installation:

<--error
1
testclient return status: 1
testclient return from file: 1
==================== finished PsqlTestClient
no existing install dir
wrote testfile
Delete file: C:\Program Files (x86)\testfile
Extract: postgresql-8.4.1-1-windows.exe... 100%
Execute: "C:\Program Files (x86)\PSQLINSTALL\postgresql-8.4.1-1-windows.exe" --mode unattended --superpassword postgrespass
postgres installdir: C:\Program Files (x86)\PSQLINSTALL
==================== running PsqlTestClient
try userid: postgres
try pass: postgrespass
try pass: postgrespass
Connection to database failed: -->could not connect to server: Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061)
Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
<--error
1
testclient return status: 1
testclient return from file: 1
==================== finished PsqlTestClient

I have no idea what it means or what should I do?

Thanks for helping

1) Uninstall PostgreSQL from the Windows Control Panel.
2) run the command - start > programs > accessories > command prompt > right-click > run as administrator

net user postgres /delete
4) reboot.
5) Install PostgreSQL 8.3.9 from this link - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/Postgres_8.3.9-v1.0.7.exe
