Hello Support,
I'm finding it impossible to connect to PostgresSQL after years of using HEM without problem. I have read EVERY part of the FAQ and followed the steps to the letter. I've turned off all the Windows Defenders, Firewalls, anti-virus, etc.
I've uninstalled both PostgresSQL and HEM from my computer and tried reinstalling them from scratch and it always produces the same result. I've tried versions 8.3 and 8.4.
First I get "The follow error occurred when trying to open the database: Failed to establish a connection to '127.0.0.1'. when I try to open HEM.
Then the "Database Control Panel" opens. I've double and triple checked all the input fields here and everything seems to be in order. When I click connect I get.
"A connection to PostgresSQL could not be made. Would you like to have Holdem Manager attempt to start the service?"
I click Yes.
"Sorry, Holdem Manager was unable to start the service."
Then a split second later....
"Holdem Manager has started the service. Please try again."
But when I try again it gives me the same endless loop of messages. I've spent hours trying to fix this on my own and followed every FAQ I could find.
Any help?
Thanks.
