I have recently bought a new computer and have tried to install HM on it (for the 15 day free trial). However, when I try to install HM and Postgre I receive this message:
"PostgreSQL was detected on your system, but we couldn't connect to it. Please try a new User Name and Password."

In the boxes below the message, "postgres" is entered as the user name and "postgrespass" is entered as the password.

I am then directed to a HM FAQ page about postgres passwords: FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: Password Issues (PostgreSQL) (http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/82/Password+Issues+(PostgreSQL))

I have followed the instructions to use the password 'dbpass' (with the same user name) but it still doesn't work.
I have also followed the instructions to enable any password/username by editing the pg_hba file but this also hasn't worked.

I would greatly appreciate any help you could offer me with my problem.

Thanks in advance,
Ben Rosenbaum

How did you install Postgresql?
Are you using any other poker software?

Can you connect to your postgresql server via pgadminIII?
