Hello,

I had the same problem as everyone in this thread, it seems that something happend and HoldemManager can not connect to database somehow:
http://www.holdemmanager.net/forum/showthread.php?t=5561

The problem is that I did not know this so I reinstalled HEM and after that I was trying to reinstal PostgreSQL according to your guide here: http://www.holdemmanager.net/setup/postgresSql.html

However, it says when I go through whole registration that postgre username already exists and installation is never completed. When I choose another user name it does not work. I have back up all my data from old POstgreSQL so I should be able to copy it into new one, however now I am having serious problems to even install SQL database... Could you please help?

edit, different issue just seen the screenshot.

You need to choose another username instead of postgres try holdemmanager for example

Well I am not sure if you are talking about problem with connection do database as everyone has - my main problem is not that I have uninstalled database completely (removed from PC) but I cannot install it back (I have used old database from PokerTracker3).

It simply says that your suggested username for installation already exists...
