Unable to login to database

Hello.

I did a cache rebuild last night, restarted my computer and now when I open PT4 I get this error:

"Unable to login to database (Postgres). Reason: could not connect to server: no such file or directory is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"

I do not have /Library/PostgreSQL/ folder, but when I type ls /Library/PostgreSQL/ in terminal, it returns 9.3

Any ideas what to do?

Thanks!

Run:

ps ax | grep -i postgres

at the terminal and paste your output here.

If you suggest I do this: https://www.pokertracker.com/guides/PT4 ... gresql-mac

Is it possible to back up my database first so I don't lose all my HH? If so, how do I do that since I can't get into PT4

Look forward to your reply..

Thanks

So PostgreSQL isn't running then. If you go in Console do you see errors relating to PostgreSQL? If so what do they say?

No errors in ~/Library/Logs relating to PostgreSQL.

Any other ideas?

Thanks!
