this is for ptv2 only. i'm trying to get postgresql setup on v2 and then afterwards convert to v3.
just need the user name and password etc to type in the postgresql settings to do that.

Click the help link at the top of the PostgreSQL Settings window where it tells you this information.

now i downloaded the latest patch which installed properly. when i open the postgresql settings window it says this option is available to registered members only. i tried to re-enter the code that i originally got which didn't work.

Just enter anything you want into the password field.

Then go Start > Programs > PostgreSQL 8.2 > Configuration Files > Edit pg_hba.conf

At the bottom of this file, change both places where it says "MD5" to say "trust". Then save the file.

Doing this will cause it not to matter if you entered the wrong password or not.
