Hey!

I have been using HEm for 8 months fine and then in the last week I have had the following error:

"The following error occurred when trying to open the database. Failed to establish a connection to '127.0.0.1'

I click OK, then the database control panel opens. I click on connect and it says:
"A connection to PostgreSQL could not be made. Would you like to have Holdem Manager attempt to start the service?"

I click on Yes and it says "Holdem Manager has started the service. Please try again."

I click OK and the Connect and it says the connection could not be made.


I have followed both these instruction
http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=34
http://208.109.95.123/faq/afmmain.aspx?faqid=171

done it three times, re installed over and over again. Been sitting 5hours today trying to figure it out. I saw some other posts about it,but they were not able to help me, I felt I have done everything to make this work.

But I think the problem I getting is that I get a message when I go into Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services > Then scroll To PostgreSQL Database Server

I start it, and I get a message that "PostgreSQL started and stopped again, some services stops automatic if its not used by any other services or programs"


Help please.
