I updated the framework for another program now pt4 wont load my DB... SIGH. How do I know my previous version? Is there a way to use the newest version with old DB? This is so annoying.

I don't know exactly what you mean when you say PokerTracker 4 "wont load my DB". Was the program you updated PostgreSQL? Are you receiving an error when starting PokerTracker 4? Something like this?

Code: Select all
"Unable to login to database (postgres). Reason: could not connect to server: Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061) Is the server running on host "localhost" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?"

If so locate and delete the postmaster.pid file if it is present (not "postmaster.opts" which may be there too). You can find that file in C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.3\data\ although you may have a different PostgreSQL version (e.g. 8.4, 9.0) or have it installed in C:\Program Files (x86). Once it's deleted, reboot and see if that resolves the trouble.
