My pt3 was working fine yesterday but today whenever i try to run ot or access my database i keep seeing this message.

These errors will occur if your PostgreSQL database is not running. Click Start --> Programs --> PostgreSQL --> Stop Service, then Start --> Programs --> PostgreSQL --> Start Service to restart the PostgreSQL server. If PostgreSQL does not start properly, please check to make sure that your firewall is not blocking PostgreSQL (there are known issues with several firewalls in this fashion, most notoriously F-Secure which must be completely deleted in order for PostgreSQL to function properly).
