My PT2 has gotten a little out of whack. I tried reinstalling postgres but I made it worse.
Now I get this when I open PT2:

Database Error

Unable to connect to the database

101 - SQLSATE = 08001
FATAL: password authentication failed for user "postgres"

Please help. Thanks.

Go to the Start menu and select Programs > PostgreSQL 8.x > Edit Configuration Files > Edit pg_hba.conf

Go to the bottom of the file and change both places where it says "MD5" to say "trust" and save the file.

Then it won't matter that the password is wrong.
