Hi i havent used holdemmanager for the last 10 days, now, because i need formatting my windows, i wanted to backup my database. However, when i try to open my holdem manager pro now i get an error :
" The following error ocurred when trying to open the database : Fialed to establish a connection to '(ip address)' "

how can i solve this ? i literally didnt touch anything, i checked my programs and i still have postgres install though that should be obvious as i didnt touch anything, what could possibly have happened? and how to solve this.

please answer as soon as possible i really need to format my system..

thank you.

This is usually a firewall or windows update issue.

First try to reboot.

If no help, try this:

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Stop Service

Start > Programs > PostgreSQL > 8.x > Start Service

If that doesnt help delete the \postgresql\8.x\data\postmaster.pid file, if you see it. And reboot.


If that doesn't help you will have to reinstall PostgreSQL completely
