Hello there right ive intalled the postgresSQL and connected but i cant get PT3 running doesnt accpet the password. ive tryed dbpass postgrespass and still nothing :S i dunno what to do more
oh and i also did what came on the tutorial to change the word mp5 with trust

How did you install PostgreSQL? Did PT3 install it for you or did you install it manually, or was it already installed?

When you followed the tutorial to remove the need for passwords, did you remove the # from the start of any lines you changed, and save the file OK so that you still see your changes if you re-open it?

i have downloaded from the site with pockertra3 already on my pc...no i didnt take oout the # from the lines and yes it still shows the trust that i have putted it

I meant how did you install PostgreSQL in the first place? If you already had PT3 on your computer then PostgreSQL must have already been installed.

You need to remove the #. The # means that the line is ignored.
Also make sure that you restart the PostgreSQL server after you save your changes (or reboot).

i have pt3 and postres running on my laptop this is my desktop pc and its a fressh pc so ive downloaded both..
ive thaken out the # from the line and still the same error could not connect to database...because of the password on pt3 i have the postgres server connected...i dont know what else to do :S

If PT3 installed PostgreSQL for you then the password will be dbpass. There is also a PostgreSQL service password, which is "svcPASS83", but I wouldn't expect that to be needed - try it, though.

Other than that the method for removing the need for passwords does work.
If you're still having problems please attach the config file you have edited to a Support ticket and include a link to this thread so that we can check your settings.

hello there im gona try that servie password.
i havent done this\ Then go Start -> Programs -> PostgreSQL -> Reload Configurations
without doing it it will still need passwords? because i cant get into pt3 after ive done it it says it cant because of no password.i dont have the error here but it says something like that.
do i need to reload config´s???

After you change the PostgreSQL config file you need to save it and then restart the PostgreSQL service - changes in the file will not make any difference until the service has been restarted.

it is up and running now
the pass i used was "postgres" tried postgrespass dbpass and the service one as well but finally got it
