Hi when I installed postgesSQL I got a warning that said:


"problem running post-install step.Instalation may not complete correctly
Error reading file C:/Programfiles/PostgeSQL/8.4/data/postgesql.conf"

how can I fix this problem?

thanks Troy

and when I open C:/Programfiles/PostgeSQL/8.4/data the file is empty

I also tried this but it did not work for me http://forums.holdemmanager.com/manager-general/8182-fix-postgresql-cannot-start-error-127-0-0-1-a.html

I still get the popup when starting HM that says
The following error occured when trying to open the database failed to establish a connection to '127.0.0.1'

these are my install details

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

Uninstall the PostgreSQL version that failed

If that installer fails to install PostgreSQL, please reinstall PostgreSQL using the following instructions:
A) Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt > Right-Click > Run As Administrator

net user postgres /delete
B) Reboot.
C) Try installing this version of PostgreSQL - http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/Postgres_8.3.9-v1.0.7.exe

if that fails too try steps A and B and then try installing this version PostgreSQL: Choose a Mirror (http://wwwmaster.postgresql.org/download/mirrors-ftp/binary/v8.2.13/win32/postgresql-8.2.13-1.zip)


too quick for me fozzy:D
