Hi. maybe it help someone
I been using trial Holdem Manager for 9 days without any problems, but during a session HEM suddenly could not connect to 127.0.0.1 and an error message comes up "The following error occurred when trying to open the database: Failed to establish a connection to '127.0.0.1'.
I close my NetLimiter (network monitoring software) and no problem now.
I suggest add to FAQ http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afm....aspx?faqid=34
"Disable/Exit/Close your firewall and any antivirus programs, network monitoring software (NetLimiter)."
I google and on http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Running_&_Installing_PostgreSQL_On_Native_Windows i read:
"Specific issues have also been reported with McAfee and Panda anti-virus software and NetLimiter network monitoring software. While some people do have PostgreSQL working with these software packages, there is no specific or even recommend solutions that have not worked in some cases, so the issues would appear to be installation specific, sometimes even requiring uninstallation."
