Unable to connect

Postby pluscount » Thu Jan 12, 2012 6:26 pm

Windows 7.

Had Postgres 8.4 not used for a long time. Removed it through Control Panel and installed 9.1. Service is running.

PT3 gives me “unable to connect”

pgAdmin III gives me “password authentication failed”

Hostname: localhost
Port: 5432
Username: postgres

Tried dbpass and postgrespass.

Tried to change password through command prompt: net user postgres dbpass. Command was accepted but no joy.

Ideas?

If you follow this tutorial you will be able to connect regardless of the password you supply - use the 8.4 instructions just substituting 9.1 for 8.4 where appropriate.

Please note that the last time we tested 9.1 we found crashes which caused problems for PokerTracker - as such we only officially support up to 9.0 at this time.
