I haven't used HEM for a week. Now when I try to open it I get the following pop-up "The following error occurred when trying to open the database: Failed to establish a connection to '127.0.0.1'." And the program just freezes or shuts down.

FWIW, I have the latest patch installed and I'm running windows 7 on a virtual machine.

What should I do?

Thanks,
Christian

Solutions:
1. Reboot your computer
2. If that doesn't help look for the hidden system file postmaster.pid in the postgresql data folder, delete it and reboot your computer again.
3. Check the postgresql service in the windows services (control panel->administration). Sometimes it helps to change the Logon As.. to "local system account"
4. Check our FAQ:
