Unable to read data from the transport...

"Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host"

Well well well...I'm really getting upset after 3 hours trying to making work HEM.
For some reasons I've not been able to launch HEM for a while, I think the problem comes from postgreSQL like you could see in attached pictures.

I did read the FAQ and tried to solve the problem by myself but it's an epic fail, here what I did :

- Stop/Start postgreSQL
- Reinstall HEM several times (combo version)
- Reinstall postgreSQL several (until version 9)
- Turn off Windows Wall Defender
- Reboot (around 93 times?)

Help please

I also tried to restore my comp to a previous date but now I've :
" The following error occured when trying to open the database: Failed to etablish a connection to '127.0.0.1'

Unable to read... is a firewall problem, see this: http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questio...%28Firewall%29

can't connect... usually means that the postgresql service is not running:
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:

Install PostgreSQL: Choose a Mirror
to port 5433.

[Chip&Chair]

ok I tried to download... do i chose Http or ftp? also I don't know how to get to to download to port 5433. Anyway it didn't work because it got the following message: "This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exist and that you can open it, or contact the application vender to verify that this is a valid windows installer package".

[Patvs]

Unzip the download first.
From the unzipped folder run postgresql-8.2.msi

During the installation you can pick the port: 5433
Password is: postgrespass

[Chip&Chair]

I'm getting there and i appreciate your patience. It didn't accept the password "postgrespass"

[Chip&Chair]

still not accepting the pw. it asks for pw then asks to verify pw... not working. does this pw work for anyone else?
