Hello!

I get an error when I try to make a new db!

The Following error occured when trying to initialize the Holdem manager database: Error: 42501: could not read file "base/1/2838/: Permission denied

Why is this happening? I have all three program files running as admin - what could this be ? Some problems with postgres or what? And how can i solve it?

Thanks in advance

Close HM, run the DBControlPanel.exe as an admin from the folder

yeah, well thats the same window I get when I click on "Database Management" but still the same error?
I now tried to make a new database in the pgAdmin but there is the same Error Message so I guess its some postgres "bug".
Does this mean now that I have to reinstall postgres? If yes whats the best/fastest method to save/restore my HM db's ?

Thx

there are several options to backup and restore your database:

- Export all handhistories, reimport them on your new computer

- Backup your Database using pgAdmin (not the best option, there are many people getting problems when restoring that DB)
