Hey guys..
My intentions are to take my desktop database and get it onto my laptop. Note that it's close to a million hands so it's a big db.
I tried doing the backup as shown here: (FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: Backup & Restore Database (http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/72/Backup+%26+Restore+Database))
After about 45 minutes-ish I got an error. I don't recall the exact error but will work on getting that. It produced an ~800mb file and I was hoping that it might have still worked (even with the error) but after using the restore process from that same page, the database was empty after the restore (on the laptop).
So then I tried using the Backup/Restore option in the HM software (as opposed to pgAdmin) and got this error immediately: "error: Could not find PostgreSQL installation directory"
Not sure what to do.. :confused: Couldn't find any similar problems from sifting through FAQs and forums.
I'll quote that exact error message I get in pgAdmin asap..
