I have re-installed Vista on my computer b/c I was having problems. Before doing so I made a backup of my database using PGadmin III. Once I got the new OS installed I re-installed HEM and registered it successfully. I then tried to use the restore function in PGadmin III with no success.
I found this thread:
http://www.holdemmanager.net/forum/showthread.php?t=5906&highlight=restore
I followed all the advice using the copy/paste 'data' folder method and I am unable to connect to the database when I do this. My problem seems almost identical to the person having the problem in that thread except I am trying to restore my DB back to the same computer rather than a new one.
One thing to note is that when I originally installed postgreSQL on my new OS I used the default settings for username and password; however, I modified these to postgres2 and my own password on my other database I was using before I reinstalled Vista.
I did go back and uninstall postgreSQL on the new OS and reinstall it using the same username and password that I had previously but without any success.
