Techno-spaz here, so go easy on me :o.
Tried starting HM today and got the following error message:
'An error occurred while reading the config/HoldemManager.config file: Root element is missing.
Holdem Manager will now backup the old config file and create a new one for you.'
I clicked OK, but got a Microsoft.NET Framework error saying:
'Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately'
So I clicked quit, and tried googling the message in the subject title. Got a few links to these forums from people with same problem.
Following one of these posts, I tried deleting the HoldemManager.config file from C:\Program Files\RVG Software\Holdem Manager\Config and then restarting HM.
Now I get the message :
'Could not find the config\HoldemManager.config file. Make sure you are running HM from the correct directory'
I click on OK and the 'Connect to PostgresSQL' box pops up.
The fields 'Server Name', Port Number', 'Login Name' and 'Password' are all filled in, but I don't know if they are filled in correctly. Should I go ahead and press 'Connect'?. I'm scared of taking any further steps in case I break it any further.
Any help much appreciated.
