First Database

Postby kg253 » Sun Oct 19, 2008 3:04 pm

I am trying to set up my first db on PT3. When I go into to configure and create the first db I get the following message when I click create:

PostgreSQL Database Error:

Unable to create PostgreSQL database:
Reason: Unable to login to database
Reason: server closed the connection unexpectedly this probably means the server terminated abnormally berfore or while processing the request.

Any ideas on what this means?

I am trying to set up db's for FT and Ultimate and I can't get any data to import nor can I get the hud to work.

This means that postgres isn't running.
Please try starting the postgres service: Start -> Programs -> PostgreSQL -> Start Service.
If that, and a reboot doesn't work, try stopping the service (Start -> Programs -> Postgres -> Stop Service), running a search on your computer for postmaster.pid and then deleting that file, then restarting the service and see if that helps.
Note that you may need to turn on 'View hidden files and folders', and the file seems to be in the folder './Program Files/postgresql/[version]/data'.
