I woke up this morning, fired up my HEM and for some reason I get the following message: "The following error occured when trying to open the database: Failed to establish a connection to 127.0.0.1."

I played all night last night, and it worked fine. I did not change a thing on my computer since last night...so no settings were changed. Anyone know anything about this? And yes, my user control is turned off.

For al those not expert in computing, i solved this problem, after a windows update i could not start HM its saying cannot connect to postreges.
After reading the how to solve thread and not wanting to spend 4 ours deinstalling and installing i started HM with user account setting on, i started auto import, and everest nothing happend, but HM was starting again, closed HM. Now i turned of useraccount setting did a restart, started HM and everything works fine again.
windows Vista home

I dont know why but it works fine Good luck

I can confirm success with this method, thank you very much. I encountered the problem for the first time today (having played last night with no hitch). I found the FAQ and was hoping to find a quicker solution. I turned UAC on, rebooted and fired up HEM, it started no problem. I then turned it off, rebooted again, starts up once again no problem.
